GOING: G(3)

F45 Training Caloundra Hcp-62 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Partly Cloudy   Rail: Out 2m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.78).  

Only a small field lining up and MEME MAILLOT JAUNE looks the most likely to push forward and set an even tempo. The lightly raced four-year-old broke through for a maiden win two starts back before a modest effort over the 1400m at this course last start. Should appreciate the drop back to 1200m where he has a good record and is worth another chance. WONDERFUL TALE has placed his last two from back and hit the line well last time as favourite. Gets the blinkers off and the claim and the extra distance should suit. MEME MAILLOT JAUNE will lead and will go close if we forgive the last run. Was tough winning his Maiden here two back. D'HARMONY was heavily backed FU at Eagle Farm FU and didn’t handle the wet track. Get’s the tongue tie and where there’s fire!. TUNED IN can win this at best and expect an improved run 2U. SUGGESTED PLAY: Meme Maillot Jaune straight out for the win.
