GOING: G

Perricoota Station Maiden Plate 2100m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.37)  

Insufficient early speed to generate more than a muddling tempo. SO VOGUE (5) might be the one on he up, though, improving sharply when up to 2000m at just his second start and looks primed for a peak performance. JAZZANSKI (9) was well-held first-up, showed good improvement last time out and will be much better served up to this distance. CALL UP KING (1) showed something for the first time in his career first-up, so he might have turned the corner between campaigns. SHADES OF SHERIFF (4) consistently features in the top four so is a consideration for the wider exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: So Vogue to win.
