GOING: G(4)

KENNARDS HIRE COUNTRY BOOSTED 3YO & UP MAIDEN PLATE 1100m

Track: GOOD4   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

A solid tempo is on the cards with Joy Of The World and Chentileeno pushing for the lead ahead of French Harp and Super Capone. Only two winning chances with JOY OF THE WORLD (8) has been competitive in two runs back from on the pace and only has to hold her form to be hard to beat. CHENTILEENO (1) is a 13 start maiden but both runs back have been sound and didn't have the best of luck at Wagga last time. Looks the threat. CARRICK (3) is a big market watch at his first run for Brett Robb and has trialled okay. Keep safe. FRENCH HARP (6) and POLENS (3) are place chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Joy Of The World to win. Save on Chentileeno.
