GOING: N

MULTIQUIP POULTRY PACE 1609m

Track: FAST   Clear (Max: 21)    

MIKI LEE (9) enjoyed a much better barrier when successful last start by 6.4 metres in a breakthrough win for this campaign at Newcastle. Draws on the back row this time but is race fit and this suits. Primary contender. OAK RIDGE (6) has improved with each start so far this campaign, last time finishing fourth at Narrabri. His best results have come at this circuit and he should be near peak fitness now. SPLIT EAR (3) draws well and is open to improvement off a resuming fourth at Dubbo. HEY DUDE (5) has claims off a second from the back line here two starts back.
