GOING: G(4)

REWARD HOMES PROVINCIAL CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1350m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 24)   Rail: True.  

There should be a bit of early pressure with Nazare's Impact and Jo Jo Sun going forward in advance of Gago and Special Day. TENDER STREAK (4) closed nicely late second up and finds more ground now. Ready to reclaim her best form in this. GAGO (1) progressed nicely last campaign and wasn’t beaten far first up where they closed off in good time. Ideally placed second up to give this a shake. BRAVEN (2) has some handy country form behind him this time in and gets some weight relief. Drawn to get every chance. RED COBRA (3) closed intently first up and gets a few ticks with the claim and a soft draw. Knockout chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tender Streak win.
