GOING: H(10)

RURAL IRRIGATION SUPPLIES BENCHMARK 58 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 2020m

Track: HEAVY 10   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

I'mtimmyzou is expected to cross from a wide draw and lead. GIDDY GAN'S JOY (3) won three and four back in good style but has struggled since. Big jump in grade when eighth over 2400m at the Sunshine Coast on May 11. This is much easier and finds a fairly weak BM58. VICTORY BEANS (9) at his top now fifth-up after making up ground late when eighth over 2220m at Grafton on April 30. Best figures measure up nicely. MANA COMBAT (6) recent runs have been sound, and a win looks imminent. Relished the heavy (8) going when third over 2450m at Beaudesert on April 25. Looks one of the major players today. FILL YOUR HEART (12) up sharply in trip today after running on late when sixth over 1420m at Grafton over 1420m on May 16. Can sneak into the minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,9,6,12.
