GOING: S(5)

Kevin Sharkie Maiden 1100m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 13)   Rail: True. (Pent: 4.73)  

Plenty of pace with Outbush and Cardiosphere leading from Geegees Missile. GEEGEES MISSILE (12) resumes and led and went close in Listed grade when last seen. She has two trial wins under the saddle and will use the inside gate. Progressive, and should have them covered. SEDNA (8) has switched from a Victorian yard on a 26-day return, and two back she missed a nose on the Ballarat synthetic. She would form the quinella if she brought that form to the turf, and the 2kg claim is handy. LIGHT FORCE (3) resumes and didn't come up in his brief previous preparation. He's missed a whisker twice here prior and would be in the finish if he found that form. WANNABE ZIGGY (11) resumed here beaten 2.4L and can build on that. She needs a good ride from the 2kg claimer. OUTBUSH (4) led and was good in an Open 3 two back, but he was plainer last time as a hot favourite. Newitt will skip him across, and he can stick on better. SUGGESTED PLAY: Geegees Missile is hard to go past.
