GOING: H(10)

LIGHT HORSE BRIGADE QTIS Three-Year-Old BENCHMARK 58 Handicap 1100m

Track: Heavy 10     Rail: +1.5m 600m-225m; Cutaway Applies True Remainder.  

Strong tempo with Backstage and Bold Tee leading from Moet At Midnight and Bonfire Spark. BOLD TEE (2) showed a lot of natural pace to lead all the way and score by well over a length on debut at Ipswich, despite his jockey losing his crop at the distance peg. He has a good draw and even with another 300m to travel, he has winning claims. VIENNA WHO (5) hasn't raced since January but was readied with a nice trial and placed the only time she attempted this distance. Looking for a good return. BACKSTAGE (1) raced just twice at the maiden campaign including a win on debut at Gold Coast. Draws the inside and is likely to have developed further with maturity. BONFIRE SPARK (3) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bold Tee to win.
1 18x BACKSTAGE
