GOING: H(9)

TAB.COM.AU CLASS 1 & MAIDEN PLATE 2145m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: +7m Entire. (Pent: 5.99)  

Expecting Treasure Hunter and Time For Snow to press forward and set the tempo. HOLD THE DOOR (2) was a dominant all the way winner here two back to shed the maiden tag then was too bad to be true last time when sent straight to town. Willing to forgive back to the scene of the crime. TIME FOR SNOW (8) has become the ultimate bridesmaid of late, finding just the one better in all five runs back. Backs up quickly and doesn't have to improve much to finally break through. KNIGHT OF RHODES (3) was far from his best last time at Newcastle but his two runs prior at Canberra were full of merit. Reunites with Boudvillain and is worth keeping in mind. AEROSTERN BRO (5) continues to knock on the door. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hold The Door to win.
