GOING: N

Stall Gate Kiosk BM68 Hcp 1880m

Track: Synthetic     Rail: True.  

Mightymaxi and Tuskegee will settle forward and can set a moderate tempo. TUSKEGEE (1) made it two on end when winning easily here over 1650m. The extra metres shouldn't bother, and Darmanin is a key jockey engagement replacing the apprentice. SUGOI LEGEND (4) drops back in trip off placed efforts at Hobart. He went close over this trip when last here and has claims. BLONDE STAR (2) won over a mile and then landed last last time and failed to make an impression. She's better than that and has her first outing on the synthetic. BLONDE SUSPECT (3) has been racing in stronger company and has trialled well here between runs. Has won twice this course/distance and is in the mix. MIGHTYMAXI (5) would be a hope on his 64 win here two back over the distance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Tuskegee.
