GOOD LUCK SANDIE WANT @ EQUIMILLION SUPER MAIDEN PLATE 1200m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 25)   True  

Many of these step out for the first time so a genuine tempo is expected. PRIZE WITNESS (13) is a Shamus Award filly on debut for the Kris Lees stable. Trial form hasn't been electric but that won't matter come race day. Huge odds in early markets and worth a throw at the stumps in a moderate affair. Speedy mare MY PROCLAMA (2) made it three minor placings from three career runs when she found a couple better at the end of 1300m at Hawkesbury recently. Back a little in trip and the blinkers go on which might be just enough to give her the edge. GREEN SPRING (7) resumes. Heavily supported at both runs in the maiden prep but finished runner-up each time. Finds a soft race today so he has come up short again. Expect a bright return. MAID OF MOOLAH (1) is back after an 18-week lay-off. Consistent performer last prep at the provincials and in town. Has trialled twice in September so should be ready to hit the ground running. PONTEVEDRA (10) is a first starter for Messara/Gavranich. Half-brother to Blue Diamond winner Tagaloa. Trialling like a good colt. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing a couple at odds - Prize Witness and My Proclama.
