GOING: S(7)

JETS IN BUSINESS 2YO MAIDEN PLATE 1250m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: +4m Entire.  

Tricky one to map with a number of first starters but over this trip there is good speed anticipated. BEADMAN (4) confirmed some handy trials with a strong runner-up effort on debut. Extra trip should suit and drawn kinder than most. Set to breakthrough. SOLID (8) finished close-up in a recent trial for an in-form stable. Despite a tricky draw can entertain. RUSTEMO (15) clocked handy sectionals at Hawkesbury on debut and has the blinkers go on. Up in trip has the talent to overcome a plain gate. SWAG (9) hasn’t done much in two recent trials but was runner-up in a promising summer debut. Keep safe with an ideal draw. AGENT ZERO (1) has looked a ready-made type in two trials and senior rider steps in. Poor draw the only knock. SUGGESTED PLAY: Beadman win
