GOING: G

RACING TODAY FM 66 HANDICAP 1600m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 28)
Good early tempo with several going forward, primarily Leonessa, Secret Recipe and Sparkling Jubilee. SECRET RECIPE (2) set the pace over 1500m last time but was outrun late. She has won once, finished second twice and third once from six starts on this course. She takes a slight drop in class and from her good draw of two rates highly. KITTYBOYS GIRL (7) showed good improvement in her last start over 1450m on this course. The manner in which she finished off her race that day was encouraging. She is likely to be settled near the rear of the field from her wide draw and should be storming home late. COUNT YOUR CHANCES (8) doesn't have the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing a close-up fourth of 11 over 1500m at this track. Has to be considered in this line-up. HAVE A PARTY (6) should have finished closer to the winner last time as she was tightened for running room at the 400m mark. She won her only attempt over this course and distance. From her good draw of three, she should be figuring in the finish.
