Choices Flooring Warrnambool Maiden Plate 2000m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: Out 9m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 4.76)  

Winter Arc to take charge ahead of Cold Train at a strong tempo. KING SNITZ (10) steps out to 2000m third up from a spell, and he was doing his best work over the final stages over 1700m at Geelong 10 days ago when finishing in the money. He has a home track advantage and is the one to beat for us. HALEMO (3) resumed from a freshen-up and was only beaten in a head-bobber by a nose here nearly 3 weeks ago after hitting the front halfway down the home straight that day. He strips fitter and can go one better here. ALLTOGETHERNOW (1) had a very tough trip over 2400m at Geelong 10 days ago when trapped 3 wide throughout. The drop back to 2000m won't bother him, and he can figure in the top 3 this time. COLD TRAIN (2) has been trying to win a race for some time and was a fair third second up from a spell at Casterton just over 3 weeks ago. He has not missed a cheque in 2 starts on this course, and he is worth including in all combos. WINTER ARC (11) is improving in each of his 3 runs to date and is bred to relish getting out to 2000m. Each-way. SUGGESTED PLAY: King Snitz can take this out.

Form hard to fault. Most recently tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 3rd of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at this track on September 3 over 1700m, in the wet; long-neck behind Le Plus Rapide carrying 57kg at $10. The run before that 4th of 7 in a Mdn-Sw at this track on August 20 over 1700m, on rain affected going; 3.5 len behind Hill Cry carrying 57kg at $4.40. Promising effort last time out. Should hold the form and he appeals as one of the hardest to beat.
