GOING: S

Ladbrokes Odds Surge Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 9m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.42).  

Genuine tempo with the speedy Kamchatka leading the way. EXTREMELY WICKED (7) resumes and looks well placed in this first-up. She's placed in 4/6 starts to date including 3/4 last time in, 4th to the very smart Austmarr at this track and distance first-up last time in. A repeat of that will see her go awfully close. CHAMPAGNE EFFORT (6) resumes having run in a BM64 at Moonee Valley on debut. She found that a bit rich but looks better placed in this level of maiden. KAMCHATKA (3) is a 17-start maiden who has been going close of late, placing in his past three. Tough to back to win with confidence but he's in the mix. LITTLE SPARK (8) was okay on debut at Sale and can improve. OUR WARHORSE (10) bumped into a very smart one here first up and will be better for it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Extremely Wicked to win.
