GOING: SL

IRT. YOUR HORSE. OUR PASSION. MOBILE PACE 1980m

Track: SLOW      

TRUMP CARD (10) was 3 metres away in second at this track over 1980m last start at his first run back from a spell. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go his way at some stage. His last-start form is good enough to put him right in the finish. MUNROE'S MATE (4) was in the money at this track two runs ago before having his colours lowered at his latest appearance over 1980m at this track, beaten 15 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. ACTION MAJOR (5) is next best after finishing runner-up when resuming over 2600m at this track last time out. HUGO (7) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 2600m at this track.

Fair run when beaten by 5 m finishing fifth behind Deceptive Lee at this track over 2600m in a 4yo+ on April 19 at $13.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.75 m finishing second behind Cocktails And Caviar at this track over 2600m on May 2 at $50.50. Leading player.

Having his second run back from a spell. Solid effort when 2nd (Fr5) over 1980m at this track beaten 3 m by Arthur Shelby (2:22.80) in 3yo+ on April 25 at $11.80. Will improve with that run under the belt. Looks very hard to beat with that run under his belt.
