THE GONG SPRING CARNIVAL IS COMING MAIDEN PLATE 1600m Track: HEAVY 9 Rain (Max: 14) Rail: Out 8m 1100m-W/Post. Out 6m Remainder. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Devil Rider has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. MEGA FIGHT (4) eleven-start maiden expected to get off the mark here. Slowly away at latest before making giant strides late when an unlucky second over 1500m at Hawkesbury on June 25. Ready for the mile and no excuses here. BALMIERRO (1) thereabouts in similar company and looks the main danger after holding on well when fourth over 1550m at Canterbury on June 19. Go on his sound second two back over this course and trip when assessing his chances. FAYE RUNAWAY (6) is trained on the track and much better showing when a plugging third over 1600m here on June 20. Three weeks between runs at latest and strips fitter today. PIERANT (9) best performance in four runs when powering late to finish second over 1500m at Hawkesbury on June 18. Handles the going and sure to be strong late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mega Fight to win.
