GOING: S

Helen Cantwell 2YO Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.99).  

Lots of unknowns here but Dreamwriter will be among those going forward at a solid tempo. DREAMWRITER (10) has run second in all three starts to date with a win looking close. She was only beaten a length in a high rating maiden behind Oodnadatta at Geelong last start and will be very hard to catch here. GAMBINO (4) is a colt by leading sire Written Tycoon on debut. He's won a trial leading in and must be respected. CARAVANSERAI (2) resumes off a Rosehill trial win. This suits better than last campaign. ETERNAL (11) next best on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Dreamwriter.
