GOING: G(4)

MCA POLYTRACK HANDICAP 1200m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 30)   Rail: +16m Entire Cutaway Applies.  

A solid tempo on the cards with Flagship taking charge. FLAGSHIP (3) was solid first-up behind a good winner who has since gone and won in Saturday company. He's fitter for that run and this looks to shape similarly for him, though there looks to be less depth in this. Can land in a handy position and will be tough to beat. MAGALI MAGIC (8) got a long way back last time out but closed off well to finish 2L off the winner. The form out of that has been franked and she draws a much better gate this time. Can sit closer in the run this time and put her best foot forward. AMARLIME (9) disappointed last time out when never getting into the race, though her fresh win was very good. The rise in trip looks ideal for her now and Pike sticks. Can bounce back to her best. DIVINE IMPACT (1) will be better for the first-up run and while still short of her best trip, she possesses plenty of class. Can put her best foot forward. SESH (2) can give a bold sight from the front once again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Flagship looks the one to beat.
