GOING: S(5)

BRAVE SMASH @ YARRAMAN PARK PLATE 1300m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 28)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

Jet is the likely leader at a slick tempo. Nine of the 12 acceptors are in the Chris Waller yard. SNITZEL MISS (12) rates the best of them. She was narrowly beaten twice at Group level last preparation but will be better for her two runs this time around. Raced a $2 favourite at Canterbury the latest, and Lloyd rides today and will give her every chance from an inside barrier. Stablemate UNITED STATES (5) is third-up for Waller and won't know himself in Maiden grade. Presents third up off a 1.9L defeat in a 72 at Rosehill, and he should be hitting the line hard. Waterhouse-Bott-trained JET (3) resumed at Canterbury as a $4 favourite and looked a run short. He'd come off a Randwick trial win and is sure to keep improving. Will jump and run from the inside barrier and will take pegging back. HERMIONE PRANCER (8) resumes for Waller and was last seen beaten a whisker at Newcastle on debut. She's trialled sharply for her return, and Collett sticks from the latest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Snitzel Miss appeals most.
