Bordertown   10 May 2024
 
GOING: G

Border Blinds & Curtains Maiden Plate 1550m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: True.  

Moderate pace. WE'VE GOTTA DEEL (5) was well below his best last start at Murray Bridge but had gone close in his two starts prior. Was only beaten 0.9L here three back and is aided at the weights with the 4kg claimer piloting. Leading player. RIKKI RIKKARDO (12) has struggled to threaten of late but should appreciate the rise in trip. Drawn sticky and is expected to be doing her best work late. DUBAI LEGEND (2) was poised to strike at Mildura but couldn't go on with it. Dropping back in trip should help his chances. MEIKA TATE (9) was no match for the winner at Warrnambool but did a good job to find the frame at huge odds. Could be worth following up. SUGGESTED PLAY: We've Gotta Deel to win.
