GOING: F

TABTOUCH MAIDEN 1200m

Track: FAST     Rail: True.  

The speedy Fair Grace should find the front with King Of France and Marching on her heels. MARCHING (1) was placed twice in a row at Carnarvon before his last couple of starts in tougher company. He is very well-placed in this company and from a good draw, he will be very hard to hold out. KING OF FRANCE (2) was runner-up at Carnarvon last week and is usually thereabouts without looking like a winner. He should be right in the finish with the advantage of a good draw. FAIR GRACE (7) is a lightly tried 8-year-old mare who has been holding her form well enough over the winter months. She cops a tricky draw but in this field, she gets her best chance to finally win a race. BLITZ (3) is dropping back from a mile and his recent freshen-up would have done him no harm. Include in all combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fair Grace each-way.
