Kevin Sharkie 3YO Maiden 1150m Track: SYNTHETIC Rail: True. |

|---|---|---|---|---|

A race that lacks early pressure on paper. STRATO KEN (2) is busting to win and has been freshened off a nose defeat at this track over 1009m. Kept ticking over with a sharp trial here and from an inside gate gets her chance. DON TURBOAS (1) resumes and has shown enough to seriously consider. Has the inside gate, and his two trials have been sharp. Has plenty of scope for improvement. NUNKERI (5) keeps the top hoop and is in a strong yard, Peaks and we may see more from her switching back to the synthetic. GOTTERUP (4) debuts and wasn't too far away here in a recent trial. Has a handy 2kg claim and is worth a betting watch. AWESOME ORPHAN (3) generally tries hard and may be the best of the remainder. SUGGESTED PLAY: Strato Ken to win.
