GOING: G

OWN THE DREAM 2026 MAIDEN 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: +4 metres.  

Expecting Frostland to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. SUNSET SESSION (1) was very good on debut at Pinjarra down the straight, finishing in 0.7L off the winner when debuting in Saturday company. He's since trialled nicely coming in at Belmont and he maps for a lovely run from the inside draw. Ticks plenty of boxes and can resume on a winning note. TENNESSEE SPIRIT (7) was heavily backed on debut when bumping into a smart one before going back last time out and never really looking likely. Back to 1000m now, but where she gets to in the run could be an issue. No doubt she has class though and rates highly on what she's done thus far. WHY SHE STAYED (6) just missed over 1200m here last start and has to be included. FROSTLAND (10) will find this easier than her debut effort and won't be far away. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Sunset Session in the opener.
