GOING: G(4)

SANLAM Private Wealth Maiden Plate 1717m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 37)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.41)  

A race that lacks early pressure on paper. FEDORA (11) stalked the speed before fading to finish seventh over 1600m at Pakenham in the soft (7) going on November 14. Kept up to the mark with a 1000m jump out and is capable of rebounding quickly. BORN SURVIVOR (1) had been rock-solid with three placings in a row before finishing seventh over 1415m at this track last start. Expected to improve sharply. EPEIRIC (10) had genuine excuses at her second race start when taking back from the wide draw and making some ground late to secure eighth over 1514m at Yarra Valley. Gets out to her right trip and can take a hand in the finish. TOOMUCH (6) unsuited in two career starts over the shorter trips and the winkers go on for this. Warmed up late when sixth over 1300m at Cranbourne. No surprise to see him take this out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 11,1,10,6.
