GOING: G

SMILING WIDE ORTHODONTICS OPEN Plate 850m

Track: GOOD     Rail: True.  

Heat and Lady Consort can lead the small field. MR TANGLES (2) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1075m at Thangool. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. BOOM BOOM BELLA (4) returns from a break of five-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a third over 1400m at Rockhampton. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. HEAT (1) got home by 2 lengths last time out over 1212m at this track. Has a good record at this track with five wins and two minor placings. Sure to be competitive. PRIMARY WITNESS (3) scored a commanding victory at Gympie over 1600m at his latest appearance on October 25. Yet to be beaten here, scoring three wins from as many starts. Has to be respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 2,4,1,3.
