GOING: G(4)

SHOALHAVEN EX-SERVICEMEN'S CLUB CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1500m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 19)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

Dolzino to find the front in the small field. HORIZONS (4) ran a strong race fresh when closing well for third at Newcastle. Will appreciate the rise in trip second-up and her only win came here. Bold showing anticipated. ATTICA (1) impressed on debut, coming from off the speed to score at Warwick Farm. Will be fitter and looms as a major player again. WOUNDER (3) went much better than the market expected in her Australian debut when sticking on gamely into a midfield finish. She's sure to have come on with that run under her belt and will appreciate the added trip. Looms as a serious threat. SQUEEZEBOX (2) has just the one win to his name but ran a bold race when third fresh at Wyong. Fitter and draws well again. Can give this a big shake. DOLZINO (5) carries a fitness edge and is yet to run a bad race here. Worth throwing in. SUGGESTED PLAY: Horizons to win.

The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 at Canberra Acton Mdn-Sw on August 8 over 1280m, 2.25 len behind Diamond Frost carrying 57kg at $9.50. Obviously a lot harder, happy to overlook.
