GOING: S(6)

THE GRAND HOTEL SUPER MAIDEN PLATE 1100m Track: SOFT 6 Clear (Max: 20) Rail: True.
Genuine pace with Motorboat and Taormina Sailor dictating early. POCKET EIGHTS (2) is improving with racing and much better effort when fourth over 1000m at Gosford on April 25. This is much easier and will go close to getting off the mark today. MOTORBOAT (8) showed good early speed at second career run when holding on well to secure second over 1000m at Canberra on April 12. Brings the right figures to play a leading role. FEIMAZUO (6) excellent return for second prep when she motored late to finish second over 1000m here on April 14. Placed in all three runs and looks close to shedding her maiden status. ALL TOO ZATSO (5) resumes from a three-and-a-half-month break. Raced well on the provincial circuit last time in and has the ability to sprint well fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 2,8,6,5.
