CALLIDE VALLEY TYRES QTIS Maiden Plate 1200m Track: GOOD 3 Rail: True. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Inreadyness and Mishani Platinum have sufficient early speed to position at the head of the field.
OUR DRUMMER (4) made progress last prep and resumes at an easier level fresh up. A 4-kilo claim will help him and he is the one to beat in this. THE UNDERGROUND (12) will be peaking third up and is part of the Liam Birchley stable which seldom ventures to this track without picking up some of the major prize money. Can win. MISHANI PLATINUM (11) found some form on the picnic circuit at the back end of her last prep and her recent spell would have done her the world of good. A 3-kilo claim is an advantage and she is capable of figuring in the finish fresh up. INREADYNESS (2) is heading the right way and his second-place finish at Longreach 3 weeks ago is good form for this assignment. Stick with him on an each-way basis. SUGGESTED PLAY: The Underground each way.
