GOING: G

LIVAMOL - INTERNATIONAL HEALTH PRODUCTS PREMIER 1600m

Track: GOOD     True  

The race pace looks okay in this small Open Class field so it will not be a gift race for sure. THE ODYSSEY (6) sound run fresh up and is a massive improver here. Proven second up. Has won on dry and wet. Major win chance for sure. NEREUS (2) needed his fresh up run but is a sharp improver here. Unbeaten in two second up runs. Top two must in this field. HE'S A DOOZY (1) is a course proven runner. He has won on dry and wet. Cannot be omitted here from any of your multiples. BRANCIFORTI (5) was in a different class last time, sitting just off the speed before letting down impressively for a 2 length win at Awapuni Synthetic. Live on a hattrick. Multiple class riser. The mare has deadset blossomed this time in. WOLFGANG (7) is a course proven runner. Has won fresh up. He also has won on dry and wet ground. SUGGESTED PLAY: The Odyssey and Nereus are win wagers.
