---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of early pace. CLEARLY GEORGE (4) seeks the hat-trick off easy wins this distance range. has to carry more weight in this grade but expect him to be good enough to cope. MORDECAI (2) peaks and ran his best race narrowly beaten at Warwick over this trip. Has been freshened and the 2kg claim benefits. Has the scope for further improvement. DANTE ALIGHIERI (8) comes back to the turf and is better suited. The rails gate should advantage and he'd be a hope putting his best foot forward. HOOKS (1) has the blinkers applied again and tumbles in grade. Hard to follow but this isn't strong. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sticking with Clearly George.
