GOING: G(4)

Inglis 55 Second Chall Ht-Bm70 955m

Track: GOOD 4   Mostly Clear   Rail: Out 7m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 4.58).  

Plenty of speed engaged over the 955m as always. Thinking they will be keen to put the foot down with MISS VISTA and hold them out to lead. She was good first up from a break behind a smart filly who has run well again since then. That form looks good and she looks well placed back to the speedsters course here with that run under the belt. She's the one they have to beat. There will be a fair bit of interest in this race and much of it will be on MISS VISTA. The mare was beaten but not disgraced first up. She has trialled positively again since and she should love this type of race with her speed. MONEY CHASER is definitely a short courser. He does like his runs spaced and 3kg claim is a positive. GIBBON is certainly closing in on a win. He would prefer the sting out though. Will be loving the pace on. ROYAL SPINNER resumes with a nice first up record. The trouble for him is the barrier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Miss Vista in the right race here.
