GOING: S(7)

Lakeside Conveyancing Maiden Plate 2100m

Track: Soft 7   Clear (Max: 34)   Rail: Out 3m 1500m - 1200m, True Remainder. (Pent: 5.59)  

Solid tempo with Lord Chapel, Geemes and Fonn Power the ones to roll forward. Looks a nice race for GEEMES (11) who has placed two of four starts to date. Fourth in a tougher maiden two back then runner-up in a similar race to this last time. Gets chance. FONN POWER (4) was close-up on debut over 1400m then last start over a mile raced on speed and filled a minor placing. Looks well placed over the longer trip and has good upside. Looks the main danger. THE RIGHT PAGE (10) looks a stayer in the making after an eye catching debut. Started big odds in the same race as Fonn Power last time over a mile and after settling at the tail really knuckled down late to finish fifth. Can only be improved and the extra trip is a plus. SMARTSET (7) is long overdue and has been thereabouts in a strong of recent runs. Has the blinkers added today and expected to be prominent throughout. MAGNIFICENT MISS (8) is better than last start and also has the blinkers added this time. Can improve sharply. SUGGESTED PLAY: Follow in on Geemes.
