CONGRATULATIONS CHRIS WALLER HANDICAP 1100m

Track: HVY10   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 5.90)  

Magnatear should spear straight to the front of the small field. HANAU (5) was luckless first-up then repaid backers with a narrow but impressive victory over the 1250m at Canterbury last time out. Up in class today and back in trip, though he handled the heavy going last start in good fashion and he looks to have found a suitable race today. CATCH THE GLORY (8) comes through a good race first-up where she was just too far back to threaten in the July Sprint, clocking some good splits late to finish 2.6L away. Untested on the Heavy going, but her form on Soft tracks reads well. Can be in the finish. MAGNATEAR (1) will have to lug the big weight but the claim of Wadick negates that somewhat. He's been handy at the trials coming into his fresh run and he does perform well on the fresh side. Wouldn't surprise to see him int he finish. HERBERT PARK (10) comes up from Melbourne chasing the Heavy going which she gets today. Unbeaten in these conditions and can add to her tally. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Hanau in a tricky race to end the day.
