GOING: G(4)

OOSHMAN PLATE 1550m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: True.  

With little in the way of early speed Kotaishi may well find the front. ZAN (10) improving filly who gets her chance here from the good draw. Stalked the speed when a fighting second over 1600m at Kembla Grange last time out. Brings the right figures here and will prove hard to hold out. KOTAISHI (2) two runs back have been full of merit and looks close to a victory. Strong through the line when fourth over 1400m at Randwick Kensington on October 30. Can race a little closer from the good gate and is expected to play a leading role. ALTAIR I AM (1) sound return for his third prep when an eye-catching second over 1300m at Hawkesbury on October 24. Looks set for a good campaign and is expected to be doing his best work late again. BLUEPINOT (5) strong through the line second up over the 1400m when fifth at Randwick Kensington on October 30. Ready to peak tonight and will relish the extra ground. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 10,2,1,5.
