GOING: G(4)

HAPPY EASTER FROM CLIFFORD PARK Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 23)   Rail: +1m Entire. (Pent: 5.95)  

Plenty of pressure primarily from Croatian Queen, Upstart Lover and Bundella. Gollan-trained BUNDELLA (15) was backed into even money at Eagle Farm first-up, beaten narrowly. Raced new but will have taken fitness and learning. Will likely push forward and is well-placed. ENTITLE (12) trialled well and then missed a nose here on debut. She won't have to be much improved to threaten. LAKE NAGAMBIE (3) debuts owning a trial win. Draws inside and the in-form Stanley rides. Shows some promise, and the betting will key. WEATHER (7) usually needs a run, but he has some ability and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Bundella.
