GOING: G(4)

RACING RETURNS TO NORTHAM MAIDEN 1100m

Track: GOOD4   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: Out 5m Entire.  

Good early pressure for top spot with The Good Harv or Deep Discretion likely to take up the running. DEEP DISCRETION (9) was only 1.2L off the winner at Pinjarra last time out and looks to have found a suitable event today. That rating is clear on what his rivals have done and he should get every chance from a favourable alley. He's the one to beat. THE GOOD HARV (7) led them up at Albany and was collared late, finishing 2.8L off the winner. He gets a slight rise in trip today and the addition of Chris Parnham reads well. Expecting improvement as he steps out for his third start. SECRICITY (10) was 100-1 at Pinjarra last time out but wasn't far behind Deep Discretion at the finish of that event. She now gets a much better barrier and the blinkers on first time. Can be in the finish today. MR UNIVERSE (1) was plain on debut last November but has trialled well leading into his first-up effort. Include. SECOND LANDING (8) hasn't been to the races since November 2022 but should be fitter for a recent trial. Best efforts from his last campaign read well for this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Deep Discretion.
