GOING: G(4)

TABTOUCH SHARE MY BET HANDICAP 1230m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 2m Entire.  

Good Song should lead at a strong tempo. FLYING SOUTH (2) may have been outclassed when in Open company at Ascot last time out but was solid over this track and trip prior. Racing well without winning and he has plenty of scope for improvement. Maps well and can get bounce back to winning ways. GOOD SONG (3) led all the way to break his maiden last time out, winning at this track and trip by 0.3L. It took him a while to get there, but he rates well off his latest run and he should take plenty of catching from out in front. JUST FOR MARCUS (7) wasn't far away at Narrogin last time out, beaten 1.3L and he drops in weight on this occasion, Both the stable and the jockey are going well at the moment and he rates the testing material. OUR GIRL BORAM (6) steps out in trip which is a little niggle, but she'll carry no weight and be up front for a long way. HEEZA BEAU (4) is set to peak now third-up and he won't be far away. SUGGESTED PLAY: Flying South can get back to winning ways.

Useful gelding. Most recently second last of 10 at Ascot 3yo Hcp 61+ on April 20 over 1200m, 7 len behind Twain's Angel with 54kg at $101. The start before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track Cl2 on March 16 over 1230m, 5.5 len behind Pennies Galore carrying 58.5kg at $4. Solid prospects and a good stall doesn’t hurt.

The start before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 9 at Pinjarra Scarpside Cl3 on April 4 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Belle Journee carrying 55kg at $7.50. Genuine chance on the back of the last effort.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up failed to make an impression; second last of 9 at this track Cl2 on April 11 over 1240m, on a slow track; 9 len behind How Pretty carrying 56.5kg at $7. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 10 at this track Cl2 on April 19 over 1100m, 6 len behind Naughty Gossip carrying 56.5kg at $9. Likely to feel the pinch in this company.
