GOING: S(5)

SKY RACING Class 3 Plate 1000m

Track: SOFT6   Rain (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 1m Entire. (Pent: 5.84).  

Introducing to boot up on the fence to join The Fixer and Barassi in a keen contest through the early stages. The well-related INTRODUCING (9) (half to Eleven Eleven) got the job done on the Kenso last time out and will have derived a stack of confidence from that victory. One from one over this sprint journey and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Looks the hardest to toss. THELWELL (6) resumes here but showed enough when last in work to warrant serious consideration in a race like this. Can run a race while fresh. TIGER SHARK (11) has hit the top-five in all nine starts to date and gets some weight relief with the claim. Top-three conveyance. LIBERTY STEPS (4) strips fitter second-up from the spell and looks one for the multiples. HIDDEN WEALTH (2) next best from the Gollan camp. SUGGESTED PLAY: Introducing to win.
