GOING: H(10)

KILCOY EXCHANGE HOTEL BENCHMARK 60 Handicap 1200m

Track: HEAVY 10     Rail: True.  

Expecting Badgers Nuts to take up the running with Prince Of Diamonds and Best Song close at hand. INVICTUS LAD (5) is well bred and found better form beaten 1.7L at Beaudesert in stronger. Peaks and would have these covered at best. Draws low and has been kept on the fresh side. NEW YORK GAL (8) peaks off two threatening efforts. Raced favourite at Warwick last time and will go close with average luck from the awkward barrier. BEST SONG (9) flopped on the poly but the form prior stacks up. Has a 2kg claim today and will push forward. She's won 2/4 at this track/distance. GEE BEE ESS (1) has been racing better class and has a handy 4kg claim. She has been briefly freshened and also deserves consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Invictus Lad.
