GOING: S

TAB We're On 1100m

Track: SOFT 7   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: Out 4m Entire Circuit.  

Reasonable tempo with One Hard Lady probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. HARRY'S YACHT (2) went to the paddock a winner and resumed as one, leading throughout at Moonee Valley first up over 1200m in a commanding performance. May have gotten the favours there but being on speed will do that more often than not. FLUENT (8) is going well, two back finishing a narrow fifth to subsequent G1 Goodwood winner Reserve Bank before another sound effort at Caulfield. Should be right there. UNTAPPED (4) was behind Harry's Yacht at Moonee Valley and does meet that horse better at the weights. Can bounce back. MADAME MASERATI (5) has won her past two and showed a sharp turn of foot to win at Pakenham as favourite last time. Gets in light and can surprise if it's a dash home. RUNLIKENENCRYPTION (7) is promising off a dominant win fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Harry's Yacht on top.

Useful filly. Most recently 4th of 7 at Caulfield 3yo Hcp on May 3 over 1100m, 3.5 len behind Landmark with 54kg at $9. The run before that led to the turn then faded 5th of 10 at Morphettville in the LR Redelva on April 12 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Reserve Bank with 54kg at $11. Certainly worth another chance.
