GOING: G(4)

SYMONS LAXON RACING Maiden Plate 2200m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 28)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

Cut Diamonds is the likely leader and should be able to get there comfortably. NAVILLUS HELLFIRE (5) was beaten by a nose at the Gold Coast last week and the step up from 1800m to 2200m will be ideal. She is ready to go one better here. CUT DIAMONDS (4) can mix her form but meets a relatively weak maiden field here. She is normally running on and is capable of a top 3 finish this time. BETTER BELIEVE IT (2) battled away bravely when finishing midfield in a tougher field at Doomben 4 days ago and if this race has not come too soon for her, she will be right in the finish. SASSY TAP (6) might want a heavy track and if she strikes conditions to suit, she can run into the money. CITY OF TROY (1) has some hope in a poor field. SUGGESTED PLAY: Navillus Hellfire to win.
