GOING: G(4)

Ted and Arthur Cox Memorial 1200m

Track: GOOD4   Clear (Max: 23)   True  

A solid tempo on the cards with Always A Winner taking charge. A small field but it's competitive. JAGUAR STONE (1) was within range in Group 3s and then got too far back here in an Open 7 days ago and that didn't suit. The rails gate shouldn't bother in the small field and she deserves another win. SEYDOUX (4) finds harder but has gone back-to-back and has 2kg weight relief. She's also back after 7-days and should go close. INTISAR (7) is also up in grade but rates well off the 60 win and can't be ruled out down in the weights. FAKE MAGIC (2) went well enough in the Jaguar race to consider. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Jaguar Stone.
