GOING: G(4)

VETS ON RIVERBANK MAIDEN 1400m

Track: GOOD 4     True  

There is good pace and pressure forecast in this Maiden event over 1400m. ROSALITA (10) placed in three of her four runs this time in. She has been course-placed. One to beat here no matter the footing. LEMAITRE (2) showed good improvement at second start. Wide draw but still a top-tier must. HEAD FIRST (11) has been heavily backed in last four runs for two placings. On pacer. Include. NADHEEMA (8) has been better at last two runs. Has trialled well since last August. Drawn to be a threat. PERFECT POSY (6) has been six times placed. Two of those have come here. Handles it dry and wet. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rosalita is a win wager.
