GOING: G(4)

The Big Screen Company Plate 2000m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 18)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Solid pace on the cards with Here Comes Ruby and Mr Yum Cha who like to get rolling early. Lots of these crying out for the journey. ROTATING SOUL (13) was good fresh over 1400m then strong to the line over 1850m latest. Fitter again and trip ideal now. Gets chance. Same goes for MR YUM CHA (6) who was scratched recently and saved for this. After a fair debut relished the extra ground and placed at second outing and has good upside. Should be claiming a maiden soon. TEAM HEIST (14) has been beaten in photo finishes last couple. Another who is overdue and expected to feature. CHAUSSETTE (9) is yet another to have improved at second outing and looks well placed into this trip now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rotating Soul looks well placed.
