AQUASHIELD ROOFING THREE YEAR OLD MAIDEN 1200m Track: GOOD 4 True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Genuine tempo with Hayworth leading the way. MIZZETTE (11) showed promise earlier in the season and was put aside to mature after her last run at Ellerslie in October. She will find this company more to her liking, and with the natural improvement that is expected in her second prep, she should be among the hardest to beat. KING JAKKAL (1) has been freshened up after a couple of sound fourth-place finishes on his home track. He is bred to improve with more time, and in a modest field, he can figure in the top 3. OKLAHOMA (5) needed the run fresh up and did well to finish fourth. She was a touch worked up in the gates that day, and will have that edge off her today. Include in all combinations. DARCI DIOR (7) will be close to her peak fitness at only her third start of her career, and from a good draw, she has top 4 claims. HAYWORTH (13) resumes from a spell and will be ready to rumble with a couple of tune-up trials under her belt. Check the market moves. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mizzette can win this.
