GOING: S(5)

Stateliner Coaches Handicap 1050m

Track: GOOD4   Clouds (Max: 31)   Rail: True.  

Very keen early battle with Oakland Raider and Santastico matching motors and there are a few others that can keep them busy. LOVELY LOOKIN' (2) lived right up to market expectation first up with a dominant on-pace victory at HQ. No tougher this time and is unbeaten second up. Big chance to win again. GREAT MAXIMUS (4) is ready to make his return after enjoying a promising debut campaign. Just had the one start last time in and boy, didn't he make it count. Strips fitter for a Gawler trial placing in readiness and has Toeroek sticking. Sure to be competitive. SANTASTICO (1) is another that returns. Worked himself into some terrific form last campaign before coming to the end of his prep one run short. Has trialled well in the lead up and is among the main chances. THE STALKER (3) paid the punters first up off the back of a nice trial in. Carries more weight this time but shoulders his share of ability. Don't take lightly. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lovely Lookin' to win.
