GOING: G(4)

OFFICIATING FIRST FOALS Maiden Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD4     Rail: True. (Pent: 4.78)  

Genuine pace with Boom Diggity finding the front from his low draw. CAPTAIN EAGLE (4) has been thereabouts at the past couple of outings and strikes a very winnable contest here. Revved up for this with a recent trial victory and has placed around this circuit. Rates the testing material against this line-up. SOMETHING SHINY (2) just missed the placings on debut and will have taken a bunch of benefit from that race day experience. Definite top-three candidate. ELROND (5) has placed three of five overall including two over this journey. In the mix. ELLTITUDE (10) strips fitter second-up and may earn some minor money. CHAYSE'N' THE KING (16) next in line from the inside alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 4,2,5,10.
