GOING: S(6)

DUBBO RHINO LODGE BENCHMARK 66 HANDICAP 2200m

Track: SOFT 7   Clouds (Max: 16)   Rail: +3m 900-400 True Remainder.  

Strong tempo with The Bentley, Tavijewel and Sebilla leading the way. SPACETIME LEGEND (3) starting to hit his straps as he gets out to his right distance range. Jumps 4.5kg for this after defeating stronger opposition over 2200m at Scone in BM74 class. Maps well and can make it three-straight wins today. JASPER'S WAY (2) deep into the campaign and gives the indication he can run a strong 2200m. Savaged the line from the outside gate with a tough third over 1600m at Warren. Adept in all conditions and can race closer to the speed from the good gate. Each way. CHARLOTTING (8) made it back-to-back wins when successful over 2000m at Bathurst in the heavy going. Has raced well in this grade in the past and gets the right run in a suitable race. SPENZALOT (1) anchored with the 60.5kg for a determined victory over 2100m at Tamworth in similar class. Well placed again despite the 2kg weight rise. Sure to be thereabouts. SEBILLA (4) third-up today and assess on her good win over 2100m at Tamworth four-starts back. Maps well and can take a hand in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,2,8,1.
