GOING: H(9)

NOEL COMERFORDS AUTO PARTS & ACCESSORIES SHOWCASE MAIDEN HANDICAP 1400m

Track: Heavy 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: +5m 1400m-W/Post; True Remainder.  

Genuine tempo with Roullottie leading the way. SABLONNEUSE (3) has shown enough in two runs to suggest a win is near, with his debut form stacking up strongly. Well drawn to take closer order and looks ready to peak third-up. BRUTAL BELLE (7) produced a big finish when charging late into second at Moruya last start. Likely to drift back again but will be rattling home if the tempo is genuine. ROULLOTTIE (9) continues to find one better but her consistency can’t be faulted, with 10 placings on the board. Handles the going, strips fitter third-up and gets the services of McDougall to offset a wide draw. SUPER JULES (12) is knocking on the door and has a solid association with Boudvillain. Must be included. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Sablonneuse.
