GOING: G

Eureka Concrete 3YO Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.89).  

From The Basement is the likely leader at a slick tempo. SAKOWIN (4) resumes. She placed at Bendigo first up last time in over this distance which gives her a strong chance here. Maps for a good run on speed and can return in good form. VANISHING (6) is an I Am Invincible filly on debut for the Chris Waller yard. Trials in Sydney have been okay but must respect the stable bringing her here. Keep very safe. FORT WILLIAM (1) resumes. He showed some promise in his debut campaign and can work into the minor money. STRUGGLE STREET (5) is a filly by Street Boss on debut who can run well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sakowin to win.
