GOING: H(10)

CONTAINER CO MAIDEN 1400m

Track: HEAVY 10     Out 10m  

Solid tempo anticipated with Horrie and Gracetheace pressing forward with I'm Feeling Lucky not far away. HORRIE (1) good placings at his last two starts and one of those came right here. Led up at last start. He is ready to win. GRACETHEACE (6) has run well in her last two outings. Was a good second here two starts back. She is a quinella and trifecta must in this. VICKEZZLASTCALL (8) caught the eye on debut when fifth at Matamata over 1400m. She drew wide then but has the inside gate here importantly. One of the main contenders here for your multiples. UP WITH THE ACE (4) was not too bad on debut when 7th beaten 11 len on a wet track over 1200m. This looks easier. Place and first four chance. NICK TIME (2) just fair on debut. Easier here. Wide draw. A 4kg claim in this helps. SUGGESTED PLAY: Horrie should be winning this. Respect the second up Vickezzlastcall drawn the ace.
