GOING: G

Choices Flooring Seymour & Euroa Maiden Plate 1600m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.29)  

Expecting Devine Grunt to take up the running with Majestic Ruler and Here Comes Ruby close at hand. TASSRON (9) debuts for the Waller yard and profiles well. Won a recent Flemington jump-out and has the blinkers on. Key scratchings leave this a winnable assignment. THESE BOOTS (10) is better than the form-line suggests. He showed enough on debut to suggest he has a future. The winkers are applied for the first time, and the stable has scratched the early favourite. HERE COMES RUBY (14) also presents third-up, and the Laurie yard is flying. Maps for a soft run, and she's poised to show more. EAU DE COLOGNE (7) resumes gelded and has jumped out well over 1300m. Markets suggest he will race well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Something on These Boots each way.
