GOING: G(4)

Tasmanian Bloodstock Class 1 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: Out 1m Entire. (Pent: 4.52).  

From wide out Coronation Keely can slide over and set up a genuine tempo. CORONATION KEELY (3) resumed sharply improved winning the Maiden. Should have the early speed to manage the wide barrier and she won't have to be much improved to take the next step. SIR JAG (4) failed to come on in an Open 3 but the two efforts prior stack right up. Expect him to be right in the finish. ROHZHAE (2) has been knocking on the door and was well-supported here last time. He deserves another chance. WHIZ BY (6) has generally been disappointing but draws handy and Newitt rides first time. He could pop up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sticking with Coronation Keely.

Racing second-up today. Last outing failed to make an impression; 7th of 9 at this track Cl1 on April 7 over 1100m, on a slow track; 10 len behind Fear The Sting carrying 50kg at $61. At only start last preparation raced behind the speed prior to fading second last of 9 at Burrumbeet Bm52 on January 1 over 1000m, 5 len behind Black Banjo with 52kg at $21. Unlikely to threaten.
