GOING: S(5)

PLATINUM GLASS & SECURITY QTIS Two-Year-Old Maiden Handicap 1200m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: +5m Entire. (Pent: 6.00)  

Moderate tempo expected with Earn To Burn likely to find the front over Star Of Ascot and Geitz. GEITZ (7) has been improving with each start, and was only beaten by a head here 2 weeks ago as an odds-on favourite. She is ready now to try 1200m again, and can go one better. STAR OF ASCOT (4) was close up in third place behind the second pick in the same race when making his debut. He will naturally improve second up and won't be in this grade for much longer. EARN TO BURN (1) showed pace fresh up but faded quickly once headed. That was in G2 company, so she will find this much easier. He has a better draw this time and will take a lot of running down this time. BLUEY'S CHOICE (6) will be peaking third up and is nicely placed in this after a handy 2kg claim. The extra furlong will help, so watch closely. NELSONS BAY (10) could be worth including at odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Earn To Burn each way.
