GOING: H(10)

HIREPOOL 3YO 1340m

Track: HEAVY 10     True from 1200m to Winning Post and remainder out 1m  

Genuine tempo with War Queen leading the way. MA TE WA (1) won very easily fresh up here and had strong support too. After a claim in this looks well in at 54.5kg. A repeat seems very likely. WAR QUEEN (8) won well on debut and had the backing too. The filly looks the main danger to the top pick in this. PALMAROW (7) was a distant third at her last start. She can place or be first four in this. RESERVOIR (4) is a three-year-old gelding (El Roca - River Shannon) on debut. He has trialled six times for a win, a third and three fourths. Looks a capable type and will be competitive. CYPRESS (2) is fitter after his resumption miss here and will go a better race today. Likely overs. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ma Te Wa can win again.
