INCH ARRAN HANDICAP 1400m Track: GOOD |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Genuine tempo with the speedy Tourbillon Prince leading the way. SUPERB KID (3) sat worse than midfield and put his rivals to the sword over this course and distance 35 days ago, winning by 2L. He does rise in weight for that effort, but Purton remains in the saddle. May need some luck from the draw, but he's a progressive type who can win again. SUPER GOLDI (9) settled near last and got over the top late in the race on April 7, winning by a neck. He's likely to get back from the draw again, but he drops 5.5kg for the rise in grade today. Sure to be finishing off strongly once again. GOLDEN ARTIE (4) only just missed when on the 7-day back up last time out and rates highly off that effort. The outside draw is a big niggle, but if he can run up to his recent efforts he won't be far away. MAGNIFICENT NINE (8) is ticking along nicely and can make his presence felt.
