GOING: G(4)

TAB HANDICAP 1100m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: +2m Entire. (Pent: 4.97)  

A solid tempo anticipated with Casserousse and Lull ahead of Aye Aye Captain and La Basilique. Tough way to end the day. CASSEROUSSE (3) nailed late in a fast run contest when second on resumption over 1000m at Warwick Farm. Since fitted with a trial victory over 801m at Warwick Farm. Ready for this trip and back in class from the inside draw. Will prove hard to get past. ZING TO ME (2) is in sparkling form and chasing her fourth-straight victory today. Sat on the fast tempo with the 59kg when saluting over 1000m at Gosford. Comes to town for the first time this prep and maps well. Value chance. LA BASILIQUE (7) exciting filly who picked them up with ridiculous ease from back in the field to score over 1100m at Hawkesbury first-up. Expect to see her go quickly through her grades this time in. Leading player with Grima's claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,2,7.
