GOING: G

Purcell Painting 3YO Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.40)  

Many of these step out for the first time so a genuine tempo is expected. Maher trained KIPPIS (11) has been kept fresh since his narrow defeat here on debut. Was heavily bet and has been kept up to the mark with a Cranbourne trial placing. Has Dee up and is the one they have to beat. COVERT MISSION (1) resumes, and on what we've seen the colt is a threat. Was on speed beaten 1L at Sandown-Hillside on debut and won a recent Mornington jumpout. Noonan rides and has been with him all along. IN'KANTOSSTAR (3) debuts for Maher with Ben Allen engaged. He's a full brother to multiple Group 1 winning sprinter Jimmysstar and is likely to have plenty of ability. Better for two jumpouts, and the betting will be key. SALARIA (14) had been well educated before a 2L defeat at Pakenham on debut. Loses Noonan but is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kippis can go on.
