GOING: S

INTERFET Timor 25 Years Benchmark 58 Handicap (Heat of Provincial Pathways Series) 1722m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 4m Entire, Sectional 608m.  

Solid pace likely with Pandarus prominent along with Run And Tell crossing from an outside gate. RUN AND TELL (6) is getting fitter with each run back from a spell and was only run down late here last time out after making most of the early running. He won't mind the extra furlong and will be the one to peg back again. ENCIPHERING (9) has been thereabouts in tougher fields than this and he should notice the drop down in class for this. It is only the wide gate that prevents him from being the top pick but he will still be very hard to beat with the right run. CAPRICORN RIDGE (1) is a handy gelding who is normally at is best at this level. He is improving with each run back from a spell and is capable of a top-three finish in this. ESKY (2) left the Chris Waller stable last year and is having is first run for the local Bain/Taylor stable. He has had 3 trials to help prepare for his return and will be ready to rumble fresh up. The markets will be your best guide to his chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Enciphering each-way.
