GOING: S

Sassi Group Maiden Plate 1300m

Track: SOFT 6   Clear (Max: 12)   Out 12m Entire Circuit  

Plenty of debutants are engaged and expect the field to run along. Tricky. JAZZCLUB (4) and CULTURAL SPIRIT (1) have prepared well for their debut outings. They have strong profiles and are in good hands. Doubt there's much between the pair. ALMIGHTY JAB (13) peaks and he finishes closer last time on the Pakenham synthetic. The extra metres are likely to suit and he has race fitness/experience. ALABAMA BLITZ (10) debuts and is a half to multiple Group winner Princess Jenni. She's likely to go well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Jazzclub from the premier stable.
