GOING: G(4)

ive > Handicap 1600m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: Out 12m Entire Circuit.  

Genuine tempo from Acta Non Verba leading Treasurethe Moment. TREASURETHE MOMENT (3) is a progressive filly who improved nicely second up at Sandown Hillside over 1400m to score, beating a handy one in the process. She should have no issue out to 1600m and will take plenty of catching again. PLYMOUTH (5) was well backed on debut in a very strong maiden at Bendigo when third before a soft win over 1500m last time out. Likely to get back but will be charging at them late. COMANCHE MISS (4) comes back in class having tackled the G2 Edward Manifold at Flemington last start in tough conditions. The run prior reads well. STATUARIO (1) has won two in a row and can measure up without surprising. SWEET JUSTICE (11) wouldn't shock at odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Treasurethe Moment to win.

Tougher here and the ratings indicate he will struggle to feature in the finish.
