SEABREEZE HOTEL SOUTH WEST ROCKS SHOWCASE MAIDEN HANDICAP 1250m

Track: GOOD3   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: True.  

Strong tempo with Kooky, Nulkaba Star and Enzoni leading the way. NULKABA STAR (7) is ready to peak from the better draw after fading late from an awkward gate when sixth over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Will roll forward and take catching in this weaker contest. FAST BLUE (6) sharp drop in class after gripping on to run fourth over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Grima sticks from the low draw and is expected to be in the finish. BIRDY GIRL (3) improving mare with her hoof on the till. Ready for the 1250m second-up after launching late for a tidy third over 1006m at Port Macquarie. Can race a little closer from the good gate. ENZONI (5) nice return when a narrow second over 1000m at Wauchope. Drops in weight again from the low gate. Each-way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Nulkaba Star finds his race.
