GOING: S

CAVALLO FARMS & CHRIS RUTTEN BLOODSTOCK TWO YEAR OLD 1200m

Track: SOFT     True  

Not a great deal of pace on paper so it may be left to one of the debutants to take it up. QUEEN'S EVIDENCE (6) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson. By King's Legacy from Enjay. She has had three recent trials leading in today's debut. Won her most recent trial at Ellerslie over 800m on February 11. Has the pedigree so is a win chance here. THE ESPY (4) is an Andrew Forsman trained two-year-old gelding lining up for debut. Comfortable trial winner. Inside barrier will assist chances. Top tier must. PERFECT HABIT (3) is a Mark Forbes trained two-year-old gelding lining up for first race start. Scored in a recent Ellerslie trial. Good draw will assist chances. Betting the best guide. BRUTIFUL LASS (5) not too bad a second on debut from the ace. She is drawn out here. Place and first four hope as race day experience matters. SAVACHI BOY (1) has the ace barrier again. Can place or be first four here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Queen's Evidence and The Espy are win wagers.
