GOING: S(6)

WATERFORCE 1600m

Track: SOFT 6     Out 6m  

Solid tempo with Melkor leading from Mohi Place and He's All Fabulous. MOHI PLACE (1) he has raced well in five of his last six starts. Drawn wide in this. He can handle dry and wet ground and is a live chance in this field for sure. AUTUMN BEAUTY (3) was a trial fourth last month so he is ready to resume in this. Wet ground suits him. Strong chance in this line-up. WAL (5) ran a good third fresh up. Has placed second up before. Trifecta and first four chance again. STARPELLO (4) is an improver here. Drawn out once again. Can still place or be first four in this field. MELKOR (6) has a wide draw here. Better than last start showed. Ran a good placing on debut. Not out of this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mohi Place and Autumn Beauty are win wagers.
