GOING: S(7)

JJS WASTE & RECYCLING COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN PLATE 1200m

Track: Soft 7   Clouds (Max: 14)   Rail: +6m 1400m-W/Post, +3m Remainder.  

Strong tempo with Izablonde and Tessarion leading from Justbetryin' and Third Master. HARDLY FORTUNATE (7) snagged back from the sticky draw on debut before launching late with an unlucky second over 1000m at this track. Would have taken great benefit from that effort and the 1200m is ideal. Goes close. AL FLORES (5) returned from a lengthy spell with a tough on pace second over 1200m at Goulburn as a $1.55 fav. Will prove hard to run down again. TESSARION (14) unwanted in betting on debut when a surprise on speed third over this track and trip. Map looks a bit tougher today but stays in the contest. TIPPYTAY (10) comes here in peak condition and expect to see her race a little closer to the speed. Chipped away late when fifth over 1100m at Goulburn. Likely improver on the quick backup. IZABLONDE (8) sound debut when second on her home track at Leeton over 1150m. Gets her chance from the low draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hardly Fortunate and Al Flores to fight it out.
