GOING: S(5)

HAZELTON RACING & KEITH KILBY MEMORIAL MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 13)   Rail: True.  

Pattera and Teautoteau to take up the running at a strong tempo. The flying ASPEN BOULEVARD (5) led most of the way but was nailed close to home last start over 950m at Cowra. Very fit after two runs back from a spell and this looks a perfect chance to finally break through. SKIPTON FARM (4) on debut for the Gavin Groth stable is a threat. Went well in his only public trial and should get all the favours from a nice gate. PATTERA (3) ran a big race on debut at Wellington two back then led but knocked up over 1100m at Narromine at his last run 40 days ago. In the mix back to this distance while fresh. MAGIC MADONNA (8) is back from a 46-day let-up for a new stable. Best form measures right up so she deserves respect. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Aspen Boulevard.
