GOING: S(6)

QUEANBEYAN PRE-MIX CONCRETE PLATE 1400m

Track: Soft 6   Clear (Max: 16)   Rail: +3m Entire. (Pent: 4.92)  

In a race devoid of early speed Brannum is the most likely to find the front. BRANNUM (1) has placed 3/4 and pulled up with an issue at Goulburn second up. He's returned with a near miss further improved and can get back on track following a 25-day freshen-up. ZO FRILLING (7) is Sydney-trained and ready to win. Missed a whisker two back and Newcastle and then went back and was close up on a heavy track. Maps well and is suited back to country level. A serious player. HELIGAN (8) switched from James Cummings and just missed on the Acton synthetic when freshened 48 days. Better for that and coming back to turf will hold no fears. YES I WIN (9) is a Sydney-trained debutant with recent metro trials under the saddle. Draws low and the blinkers are on, signally intent. Looks ready to go and the betting will be key. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Brannum.
