---|---|---|---|---|
Get Some Fun and Tehina to take it up. TEHINA (1) solid return here two back when placing over the 1000m. Up in grade second-up when a plugging sixth over 1200m at Canterbury on February 28. Can bounce back from the low draw with Nock's 2kg claim. Goes close. UNREACHABLE (6) change of tactics last start when going forward and holding on for a gritty second over 1300m at Newcastle. A repeat showing can see her score an overdue win. HYPERBOLIC (2) progressive filly who won two-in-a-row in good style on the provincial circuit before being sent for a break. Resumes with the two even trials and maps to get her chance. Stable in form and expected to figure prominently. MOONLIGHT GRACE (3) caught the eye late on resumption over the unsuitable 1100m when fourth at Gosford. Placed second-up and will be running on again. Place best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tehina to win.
