ALLENSTOWN SQUARE MEATS BENCHMARK 65 Handicap 1050m Track: SOFT 5 Rain (Max: 27) Rail: Out 6m Entire. (Pent: 5.75). |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting a slick tempo with Shadoway Drive, Doubting Eye and Divine Okay leading the way. DOUBTING EYE (13) delivered the hat-trick by spaces here a month ago and has trialled nicely since. Uses the rails gate and can go right on with it. VALTINO (4) made it two wins from three this preparation doing it comfortably in the CL2. She's been freshened 54 days and has trialled sharply twice. Maps for the run of the race and the 1.5kg claim assists. MAMARAGAN (1) has switched from a Victorian barn and just missed a placing at Moonee Valley 55 days ago. He'd also been knocking on the door there prior and that form reads well. The 3kg claim brings him into it. DIVINE OKAY (2) will push forward and has been racing well on the poly. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Doubting Eye.
