GOING: S(7)

H. FRANCIS & CO STOCK & STATION AGENTS MAIDEN HANDICAP 1400m

Track: SOFT 7   Clear (Max: 14)   Rail: Out 8m 1400m-W/Post; Out 4m Remainder. (Pent: 5.36).  

Genuine tempo with Trezzamina to take up the running. BOUNTY BY KNIGHT (2) finds the maiden win elusive but continues to turn in some handy efforts. Is aided at the weights with the 2kg claimer engaged. Best figures measure up and is ready to get off the mark. VELOCE ROSA (3) has shown positive signs in her first three efforts. Stuck gamely to her task last start at Gosford in testing conditions. Main danger. SAIL BY (11) chased soundly into the placings here last start. Carries fitness and is among the chances. TREZZAMINA (8) has good early dash and will be looking to offset the wide alley as quickly as possible. Expect her to be in this for a long way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bounty By Knight gets the nod.
