GOING: G(4)

TURN IT UP! RATINGS BAND 0 - 60 Handicap 1400m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 34)   Rail: 0.5 metre Entire Course.. (Pent: 5.62)  

Looks a solid tempo with Presszora finding the front. PRESSZORA (4) seeks the hat-trick off spacious wins and is sure to keep improving for the premier stable. Has been heavily bet and the longer sprint will hold no fears. Tough to beat in a weak race. TIZSO FAB (2) was terrible at Bundaberg (vet cleared) but won a 55 here prior and that reads well enough. Uses the rail and comes off a brief freshen. He can get back on track. RARE AND RELIABLE (5) found the grade a but rich at the Sunshine Coast but was tracking well in 55s prior. Draws inside on a quick backup and can get some on the money. ROTHFURY (1) led beaten a lip at Thangool and he will be in it for a long way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Presszora should be winning again.
