GOING: G(4)

T & G DWAN SUPAFLOATS Maiden Handicap 800m

Track: Good 4     Rail: True. (Pent: 5.68)  

Jidayubori and Pipatina can be prominent. PIPATINA (6) was well in the betting at Toowoomba before the spell but didn't measure up on that occasion. Gets some weight off with the claim, draws the inside alley and where there's smoke there's fire. Ticks a few boxes. JIDAYUBORI (4) just ran into one better at Lismore last time out before the spell and has since tuned up for this with a solid Gold Coast trial victory. Another to get some weight relief and looms as the main danger. DESERT DAWN (5) showed some ability winning a recent trial and any market confidence must be respected. CURIOUS MAGIC (9) has race experience over some of these and can improve enough to feature in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 6,4,5.
