GOING: G(4)

V&V WALSH HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 29)   Rail: Out 3m Entire.  

Fast pace assured with Famous Jurney, Close Talker and Prince Ragnar leading the charge. GENEROSITY (2) is a lightly-raced filly who absolutely bolted in at the trials recently. She was stretched to a mile last campaign but her sole win has come over this distance. Worth noting Josh Parr has taken the ride and the outside alley is no issue. Can storm right over the top of these. BARNEY'S WORLD (8) ran on well first-up in Open 3YO grade and drops in weight off that effort. Has plenty of upside and the first-up effort laid the platform for a promising campaign. Nicely drawn and rates the testing material. KRYSANOVA (4) just missed in a blanket finish last time out after a narrow win first-up. Maps to be prominent from the inside alley as she hits her peak third-up. Only swamped late last start and now strips fitter. CLOSE TALKER (10) just missed in the same race as Krysanova and looks to have good upside. Improving type with winning credentials. SUGGESTED PLAY: Generosity is the one to beat.
