GOING: S(7)

MARTY & DI'S CATERING 2200m

Track: SOFT 7     True  

Name The Game and West Coast can set an even tempo. BOLD BRO (2) is a bit of a plodder, and his best run to date was finishing second at Waverley 3 starts back. He was a beaten favourite last time out, but in this field, he is sure to be well supported again. Follow your money. BILLY (1) resumed with a fast finishing second at Whanganui, fresh up 11 days ago. He had won a trial before that, and he is good enough to pick up a win in a field like this. ZORBA (12) makes his debut with plenty of trial experience behind him, and he is bred to cope with a wet track. Follow any market moves. SATOMI (7) is getting fitter with each run back from a spell, and if he can get the right run into it, then he can figure in the top 4. DERRYMAN (8) should be close to his full fitness third up from a spell, and a 3kg claim will help him. He is another who can grind into the top 4. Include in all combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bold Bro can win this.
