GOING: S(5)

WILLIAM NEIL BAULCH Class 1 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 27)   Rail: Out 6m Entire. (Pent: 5.75).  

From wide out Hell will establish a genuine tempo. The speedy HELL (5) switched from a leading Victorian yard and blitzed the Maidens here first-up backed off the map. He has plenty up his sleeve and will make short work of the outside barrier. Fitter and no surprise if he takes the next step. OBLIQUITY (8) resumed for the top local barn and did about what expected. Has a low barrier today and quick improvement is anticipated. Tough to beat finding his best. DIAMOND MONEY (6) was nudged out at Mackay first-up and is back on track. The longer sprint will suit and he has an inside barrier and plenty of weight relief. SENNAPROST (2) has been switched from a NSW barn on a 52-day return. He's been racing well in stronger provincial company and finally draws an inside barrier. Wiggins' booking suggests he's pleasing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sticking with Hell.
