GOING: S

Warrnambool Football Club Open Hurdle 3200m

Track: Soft 6   Clear (Max: 25)   Rail: Out 3.5m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.25)  

TREASURED CROWN (6) switched to the Wilde yard and needed the first-up run on the flat. He's won here over the sticks and won a recent trial here. PRISMATIC (1) jumps well and a top hoop rides. He's had two flat runs and a trial and should be ready to go. EL DIEZ (2) has trialled three times for this, including over the steeples. He's good enough to get some of the cash. DR DEPENDABLE (4) was okay in a recent hurdle trial but will be at his best over the brushes. SUGGESTED PLAY: Treasured Crown appeals most.
