GOING: G

The Fotobase Group Handicap 2500m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 27)   Rail: +9m 1200m-W/Post; +6m Remainder. Sectional 612m. (Pent: 5.42)  

Expecting Girls Girls Girls to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. AMIZETTA (2) lived right up to market expectation last start at Sandown-Lakeside when making very light work of her rivals. Has relished stepping out to these staying trips and has more to offer. TAVINO BAY (8) gave backers a bold sight last start at Swan Hill, only to be reeled in late. Strips fitter and gets in low at the weights. Expecting him to roll forward again. GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS (5) has a moderate winning strike rate but is ticking along nicely. Is yet to be seen at this trip but expecting her to be in this for a long way. VEGAS KNIGHT (1) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Amizetta gets the nod.
