GOING: G(4)

STRIDYL | AUSTRALIAN TURF CLUB FOUNDATION COUNTRY BOOSTED SHOWCASE MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 24)   Rail: True.  

Pattera will go fast but there are few first starters lining up who could keep him honest. Tough race to kick off with the bulk of the field on debut. PATTERA (15) has race fitness and experience on his side third up and gets his chance from the inside gate. Collared late when a solid on pace second over 900m at Wellington on September 2. No excuses today. PLATINUM WARRIOR (17) returns from a spell of six months and trained on the track. Disappointed when seventh over 1300m at Moree on April 2. Has placed over this trip and finds a fairly weak race. TAORMINA SAILOR (1) resumes after finishing runner up at his last two outings. Gets in light with the 3kg claim and can run into the minor money. ANGIE'S SISTER (12) is a Winning Rupert filly out of Skullas Sister on debut for the Brett Robb yard. Trained on the track and her recent trial had merit. Gets her chance from the good gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pattera each way.
