GOING: G(4)

LONG LUNCH IN THE GRANDVIEW MARQUEE MARCH 1 COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD4   Clear (Max: 25)   Rail: +7m 1400m-W/Post, True Remainder.  

Genuine tempo from Nothing Special leading Soon To Bloom. BONNIE MURRINGO (3) is a Bon Hoffa filly on debut for Darrel Burnet. Lengthened nicely over the concluding stages in a lead-up trial here which Heywood sticks from. Bright start anticipated. DENICCI (10) is finding it tough to break through but drops back in trip with a month between runs. In the mix this time. NOTHING SPECIAL (6) was a handy trial winner prior to her sound debut performance. Is sure to have come on with that run under his belt and is among the main hopes. LUCY LULU (2) is another debutant that deserves a market watch. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bonnie Murringo gets the nod.

Better than last run and can give a sight.
