GOING: G

Hertz Cranbourne Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 23)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.36)  

They should run this along with Echuca Moama and Savamoon taking it up over Missile Girl. IL CIELO (4) was always rearward on debut but then jumped in trip second-up when a notable improver, significantly after being $101 into $51. With the benefit of those experiences and a good gate here he looks the testing material. Respecting FAUCI (3) will find this easier than the first-up run and 1400m suits. MIDNIGHT MIRACLE (11) might improve third-up from a good gate. MISSILE GIRL (7) has two even runs under the belt. Can be at her top now and the pick of the Laming pair here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Il Cielo to win.
