GOING: G

Geelong Taxi Network 2YO Maiden Plate 1212m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Many of these step out for the first time so a genuine tempo is expected. GREEN SPACES (3) resumes having run in a strong race on debut at Moonee Valley behind Field Of Play. Expected to be better with a spell under the belt and he should take beating. REGAL AWARD (5) is a gelding by Ole Kirk on debut for the Stokes yard. He's out of a smart mare and has won a Pakenham jump out leading in. Watch the betting. GETTA GOOD FEELING (10) is a filly by So You Think on debut for the O'Brien yard. She represents strong connections and has jumped out well for a home track debut. ABRAFO (1) is a colt by Per Incanto on debut for the Mark Walker yard. Blake Shinn booked to ride is a good lead. DANCE LADY (7) could run well on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Green Spaces on top.
