GOING: S(6)

BARNSON PTY LTD COUNTRY BOOSTED CLASS 2 PLATE 1400m

Track: SOFT 6   Clear (Max: 20)   Rail: True.  

Snippety Star and Neidr Dawn should push forward and establish a genuine tempo. SNIPPETY STAR (12) finally got off the mark at start 11 when a dominant on-pace winner over 1290m at Orange on April 19. Extra trip shouldn't pose a problem despite the rise in grade. EILRAHC (8) finished runner-up at his last four outings and Stanley rides again with the claim. Charged late when a close second over 1410m at Orange on April 19. No surprise to see him go one better here. MRS BULL (11) holding her form well and expected to play a leading role today. Maps to get the right run after having no luck when third over 1300m at Narromine on April 28. MISHANI VANDAL (13) strong through the line when a most improved second over 1300m at Narromine on April 28. Placed this trip and look for him late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 12,8,11,13.
