GOING: G

Race 10 1600m

Track: GOOD      

Good early pressure with Jack Pearl or Sun Maroon likely to take up the running. SUN MAROON (1) was always forward and boxed on to finish fifth over 1600m at this track last time. Should camp just off the leaders. Sure to be in the finish. HO O PARADE (11) won at this track and distance at his last outing six months ago, the only appearance of that campaign. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal while fresh. OVERMASTER (4) finished third last time over 1800m at this track when resuming from a spell. Will trim down second-up. In the right race and is worth serious consideration. BLADE RUNNER (2) finds it hard to win but is usually thereabouts and worth including.
