GOING: G(4)

000 PLUMBING SERVICES BENCHMARK 58 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 1300m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

Magic Merv and Teetotal to apply plenty of early pressure over the sprint journey. LETME ENTERTAINYOU (10) has always shown ability but has just found the second win elusive. Wasn't far away here last start and should prove hard to stop with Beasley sticking. LUNAR SOLAR (2) is going better than her recent results suggest. Drops back in grade and should be nearing her peak. CANI CANCAN (4) returns and is a fresh winner. Rates highly on best figures and is 1/1 at this track. Can give this a big shake. THEO'S CHOICE (12) also resumes and a forward showing is anticipated off the back of a solid trial here in readiness. The inside gate also assists his chances. TIZSO FAB (3) should improve second up but will need a smart steer from an ugly draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Slight lean to Letme Entertainyou.
