GOING: S(5)

TAB HIGHWAY HANDICAP 1400m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: +3m Entire. (Pent: 5.44)  

Expecting Turned Down to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. SUPER NORWEST (6) fitter now and has the early speed to get across from the sticky draw. Will benefit again with Nock's claim after being left a sitting shot when second over 1200m at Randwick. Proven at the trip and the firmer surface helps. PLENITUDE (9) due for a change of luck and expected to race closer to the speed over the 1400m. Finished strongly after giving away too much start when third over 1200m at Randwick. Hyeronimus sticks and looks hard to hold out. MIDNIGHT LUNA (16) improving mare who keeps raising the bar. Third up for this and down sharply in weight when a gritty second over 1400m at Goulburn. Has the figures to win this on the limit. ANTILOCAPRA (15) holding form well and won't know herself with the big weight drop. Tough on pace win from the wide draw in easier class over 1400m at Gunnedah. Comes here in peak form and worth each way consideration. PHAROAHZANO (21) smart on his day and not to be overlooked if he gains a start. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Super Norwest in a tricky contest.
