GOING: H(8)

TAB Maiden Plate 2200m

Track: Heavy 8   Rain (Max: 22)   Rail: True Entire. (Pent: 5.85)  

Without on-pacers engaged it may turn into a sprint home. The maiden stayers kick us off. SECRET FENKEL (4) finished fourth after being in the firing line on the turn at his last appearance over 2180m at Ipswich on May 21. Building up to a maiden win and rates among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. SHARK PARK (7) was solidly backed last time out but disappointed when seventh over 1800m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Is better than that suggests and must be included on best figures. TORMANZOR (5) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second at the latest appearance over 2245m at Grafton. Will find this assignment a little tougher but is too good to overlook. FIVE OF US (8) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when seventh, beaten 9 lengths, over 1690m at Ipswich. Has her share of ability and may earn some minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Secret Fenkel to shed the maiden tag.
