GOING: G

CASTLE PEAK HANDICAP 1600m

Track: GOOD      

Decent sized field but it lacks any obvious pace. BEAUTIFUL WIN (2) is still searching for his maiden win, but looks to be inching closer with a 1.5L defeat lasty time out. He drops in grade today which looks suitable and as he was competitive and in the market in stronger grade. Can shed the maiden tag this time. CHATEAU LE PECHE (9) settled midfield and ran over the top to score over 2000m here last time out. Back to the mile is a little niggle, but he's in winning form and he's sure to be strong to the line. SMASHING EXPRESS (4) finds a suitable race and wasn't far away here two starts ago. Can play a leading role from a good gate. ACCOLADE START (1) hasn't won for a long time but drops in grade today and gets the blinkers back on. Can turn his form right around.
