GOING: S

Moe Optical 0 - 58 Handicap 1628m

Track: SOFT 6   Clouds (Max: 18)   Rail: Out 6m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.59)  

Genuine tempo with Satin Image and Jakk's Fortune up front. CUDMORE STREET (1) has fewer convictions than most. Lightly raced six year old in great form. Won the maiden two back then hit the line hard latest to place. Surprisingly first try at the mile but shapes as though he's wanting it now and looks tough to stop again. JAKK'S FORTUNE (4) improved sharply out to 1500m when beaten a neck second-up and is a third-up winner. Looks ready and should go close. NO NEW TRICKS (5) is a veteran galloper freshened since finishing a few length away latest. Has a strong record this circuit and is a must include. RIPPLEBROOK (11) is even older and hasn't won for a while but is ticking along well with placings two of last three. Drawn for a soft run. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Cudmore Street.
