GOING: G

Hygain Tracktorque BM64 Handicap 1000m

Track: GOOD 3   Clouds (Max: 23)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.28)  

Expecting Tochka to lead Skipjack at just a moderate tempo. Small field but great race to open. BONNIE AMORE (4) is a lightly raced and promising mare back from a break. Won only try fresh and fitter for a jump-out win. Will get back and storm home. TOCHKA (5) is a speedy filly who was too sharp second-up over 1112m at Kilmore. Drawn to go forward again and will be in this for a long way. SKIPJACK (1) has been freshened since placing in richer grade last time at Caulfield Heath. Won only start course and distance and ticking over with a jump-out win recently. DEEP JOY (6) doesn't win often but is rarely far away and no stranger to this company. Drawn for a soft run off the leaders and with clear running can pounce late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Like Bonnie Amore fresh.
