GOING: G(4)

MR SIGNS HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 20)   Rail: Out 1.5m Entire. (Pent: 6.4).  

Blitzem Babe should lead at a slick tempo. LOOPY'S BABY (6) resumes for Peter Fernie and has switched from a metro barn. Has raced well in stronger and has placed 2/2 fresh. Faithfull is a positive jockey booking and count on her to manage the awkward gate. This is winnable if presented on song. KELLY'S LI ZA LU (5) will be fitter and is knocking on the door. Will settle back but the longer trip will suit. WITCH STREET (8) resumes and has won fresh. She gives away starts but has the handy 3kg claim and is likely to finish hard. BLITZEM BABE (9) resumes for Fernie and won the Maiden here two back fresh. Pulled up with an issue following and was immediately spelled. Has been away a while but is lightly raced and the betting should guide to her readiness. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Loopy's Baby appeals most.
