GOING: G(4)

SUBZERO AIRCONDITIONING Class 1 Handicap 1200m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 16)   Rail: +1.5m Entire. (Pent: 5.85)  

The pace looks even at best given a lack of early speed. SCRUFFY (13) comes off a very nice maiden win at Rockhampton. She was midfield and worked home strongly. Different setup here but can build on that effort. CHANGE THE DEEL (5) was near the tail at Dalby but was actually not beaten too far. May need more ground but has some ability. LOVE 'N' ROCKETS (1) resumes after racing in better grade. The barrier is a concern but does get back anyway. MISS MOZAMBIQUE (6) wears the winkers here. She has run pretty well here so far and can feature. DANNY'S BOY (3) was beaten 4 lengths into fifth when resuming last start over 1200m at this track. Fitter and can only be improved. SUGGESTED PLAY: Scruffy has some confidence now.
