GOING: S(6)

KILCOY GLOBAL FOODS Maiden Plate 1500m

Track: Soft 6     Rail: True.  

Not much early pace and doubt they will go hard. LORD DANILO (2) has improved recently and was only beaten by a nose at huge odds when finishing runner-up at the Sunshine Coast 3 weeks ago. This is not as hard, and he can go one better. PREACHABULL (8) was beaten by a wide gate last time out and will be peaking fourth up from a spell. She has a better gate this time, and in a very even field, she is worth including in all combinations. OUR ESPRIT (7) has changed stables since her last start, and a change of scenery could be what she needs. Each way value in a wide open field. SALLY'S KATO (3) is a lightly tried 8-year-old gelding having his first run from a new yard. He has enough ability to be competitive in this field, and if there is any positive money for him, then he could be worth some each-way consideration. AIR OF AUTHORITY (1) has the blinkers on for the first time, and can't be ruled out of a top 4 finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Anything could win this, and we box 1x2x3x7x8 in a quinella.
