GOING: S(5)

TRACKSIDE.CO.NZ 1200m

Track: SOFT 5     True  

Strong tempo assured from Shambo Jack and Summer Schemer leading the charge. INCANDESCENT (1) was disappointing when a beaten favourite at Whanganui last time out. He peaked on his run that day after leading, and with less time between starts, he can make amends. Follow your money. SO FEAR (5) franked his impressive trial win at Ellerslie with a nose win at Whanganui on debut, when lifting late to get in the final stride that day. She would have learned a lot from that experience, and she can repeat the dose. SHAMBO JACK (3) raced on the pace and folded quickly when making his debut in the spring in a good field at Ellerslie. His trial form hints at something better, and now that he is stronger, he can show his true ability. Each way. SUMMER SCHEMER (6) was a game winner on debut at Ellerslie nearly 4 weeks ago, and she will only improve with more racing. She was unbeaten at the trials beforehand, and she is expected to go on with the job. SUGGESTED PLAY: Incandescent can win this.
