#destinationcaperacing CLASS 4 1100m Track: GOOD Clouds (Max: 24) |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Cracking tempo looks assured with many of these capable of pushing on early. THE TINKERMAN (7) is much better than his last start run suggests. He has been unlucky and should have finished closer in his last two starts. Can cause the upset in this field. BLUFF ON BLUFF (9) has been taking on much stronger company in recent outings. He has finished second twice from three starts over this course and distance. He takes a drop in class and if putting his best foot forward, he should be figuring in the finish. MIGHTY MAC (5) was a winner over today's distance and track last time out as the favourite, expected to run well again. SPEED RACER (11) was prominent from the outset when second over 1200m at this track last time out. Should race up on the speed and has solid each-way claims.
