TABTOUCH BETTER YOUR BET MAIDEN 1625m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.75)  

King Of France has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. SAINTY CULLITY (3) dropped back in trip last start and never featured when well beaten as the favourite. Now back up to the mile which is a big tick and Fiore takes the ride now. Expecting him to bounce back to form and shed the maiden tag in a very winnable assignment. ICANDOIT ONMYOWN (7) beat home Sainty Cullity last start when on the 7-day back-up and is coming in with a similar setup this time. She's been tried over this trip previously and rates highly off her past couple of performances. She appears the main danger. PROPHET STEEL (9) was another who dropped back in trip last start and never looked likely. Her run over this trip two back was solid and the blinkers come off now. Maps to get her chance and won't be far away. THINK LIKA WINNER (1) is better than he showed last start and looks well placed in this much easier assignment. LENDANEAR (6) is next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sainty Cullity finds the right race.
