GOING: S(7)

THE NOWRA JEWELLER CLASS 2 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 1600m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 32)   Rail: +2m 1200m-400m .  

Lack of early speed means Line Of Fire could find the lead. ELIVINA (5) made a nice return at Kembla Grange, then stepped up in grade over 1400m at Randwick Kensington and did about what was expected. Fitter and stepping up to a mile is well-placed to turn things around. DEVINE OUTCAST (6) also presents third-up and rates similarly. Improved his numbers at Hawkesbury in stronger and Ryan is reunited, replacing the apprentice. LINE OF FIRE (2) resumed at Newcastle in a 64 and finished close than expected. At his best this trip, Collett replaces the apprentice. QUEEN OF DEELS (3) peaks for an elite metro barn and got close at Canberra last time in a 70 over this trip. Needs to find more, but should be around the mark. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Elivina.
