GOING: H

Phillips Farm Machinery 4YO+ Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: HEAVY 8   Clouds (Max: 12)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 7.57).  

Always plenty of early pressure in sprint races such as this with a large number of unraced runners. SILVER CLIFF (12) resumed with a career best run at Warrnambool, showing speed to give a good sight before being run down late, beaten a nose in second. Fitter for that, she'll be very hard to catch. TELL US TOLL (13) resumes having run twice in her maiden campaign. She was good on debut when second at Terang before an even effort at Bendigo. Profiles nicely for this. PROVE IT ALL NIGHT (4) is a gelding by Brazen Beau on debut who can run well. MALARKEY (3) was okay on debut in a strong maiden and looks an improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Silver Cliff to win.
