GOOD LUCK MERRAN WALLIS @ EQUIMILLION BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: HEAVY 8   Clouds (Max: 19)   Rail: Out 6m Entire.  

The speedy Satness should find the front with Audrey's Lane on his heels. AUDREY'S LANE (4) gets a pass mark for her two runs this prep. Did a little bit of work early before tiring near home to finish fifth last start over 1400m at the Kensington track. Nicely placed back in this company and looks ready for a crack at the mile. GRACEFUL ARTIST (11) progressed in good style last time out at the second run of the campaign, picking up late to grab fourth over 1500m at this track. Should be tough to hold out over this slightly longer journey. SATNESS (2) looked to have every chance but disappointed over 1400m at Hawkesbury last time out. His record at the mile is outstanding so if he gets a quiet time up front he might prove tough to catch. COLOMBE D'OR (5) wasn't all that far away over this trip at Wyong recently. Hasn't won for 12 months but cannot be ruled out. Last start Goulburn maiden winner ALL GUCCI (9) has plenty of upside although facing a much stiffer test this afternoon. SUGGESTED PLAY: Audrey's Lane looks the goods.
