GOING: G(3)

AMA MAINTENANCE ALLICANCE QTIS Maiden Plate 1200m

Track: Good 3     Rail: True.  

Coronation Day and Capricornus should set a strong tempo. CAPRICORNUS (1) finished just a long neck from the winner in second when returning from a layoff last start over 1100m at Mackay after racing on the speed. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a major player. SAY IT LOUD (7) turned in a nice run when fresh from a spell two starts back at Rockhampton then missed the placings last time when 4.5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1200m there. Can bounce back to her best form. LUNA READY (12) lined up for start 11 last time and after sitting on the pace she tired to finish sixth over 1300m at Mackay, beaten 6 lengths. Well placed in this line-up and is among the better chances. SHE'S GOT IT (8) has been out of the money recently including last time out when sixth over 1200m at Rockhampton two weeks ago. Suited here and can contest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Capricornus to shed the maiden tag.
