GOING: S(5)

Davey Water Products Colts, Geldings & Entires Rating 0 - 56 Handicap 1350m

Track: SOFT5   Clouds (Max: 15)   Rail: True.  

Keen pace from Berkinson and Run On crossing from wide barriers. CANIDAE (4) was an eye-catcher here last start when launching late to just miss in a blanket finish. Plenty of merit in that run and a similar effort will have him winning this time. BERKINSON (13) produced another good effort last start when beaten less than a length at Port Augusta. Horror draw to contest but isn't without his chance. UTILITARIAN (2) chased well when only beaten 2.2L last start. The lone win came at this distance and draws to advantage. VEE ROD (3) has won at this track before and was readied for the return with a trial so keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Canidae to win.
