GOING: G(4)

MNP SECURITY Maiden Handicap 870m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 18)   Rail: Out 2m Entire. (Pent: 5.9).  

Hidden Melody can burn across from the deep to take up the running. HIDDEN MELODY (7) brought strong form from Victoria and went well first up over this trip switched to the Campton yard. The claimer has to manage an awkward barrier but the filly is the one to beat on what we've seen. SALACIA (10) is an improver from the Currie barn and keeps a 3kg claim. On a 7-day return and should be in the finish. BEAU'S GIRL (6) resumes for a new yard. Won a trial but following didn't perform on the Sunshine Coast heavy on debut. A betting watch. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hidden Melody would be too good at best.
