GOING: G(4)

TEMPORARY FENCE & BARRIER HIRE - 1300 352 992 RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 860m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: Out 0.5m from 900m-600m. Out Out 1.5m from 600m-250m.  

The obvious speed has come out of the race. LOADED GUN (1) won his Maiden here by a big space over this trip and then held that figure beaten 1L at Dalby. Dropping back to this distance shouldn't bother and he will present at peak. A bounce is likely. PRINCE OF MARAKESH (9) found a place here first-up and is improved. Maps for a soft run and fitter will get every chance to go one better. SHAJAEA (4) was plain last time but the form prior stacks up. He has an awkward barrier but is a chance. AWESOME AUDREY (8) has been within range here at her last two. Rates well but gives away starts and the shorter sprint is a likely negative. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Loaded Gun.

Dual acceptor. Recent form sound. At the latest run came from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Dalby Cl1-Sw on June 4 over 1000m, slow going 1.0 len behind Sneaky Shark with 60kg at $5. The race before that scored a big 4.5 len win at this track 4yo+ Mdn May 24 over 860m defeating Starspangle Planet carrying 59kg at $1.50. Hard to beat if he brings his A-game.
