GOING: G(4)

OCEAN AIR CUSTOM AIRCONDITIONING SOLUTIONS MAIDEN 1400m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 27)   Rail: True.  

Solid tempo anticipated with Il Bello Beals and Flaming Dragon leading the way. IL BELLO BEALS (1) comes back to 1400m today after tiring late when up to the mile here last time out. He stuck on well here two back and that form stacks up. He's had plenty of tries, but he's among friends and a forward showing is expected. FLAMING DRAGON (2) led last start and was gunned down late as a 30-1 chance at this track, beating home Il Bello Beals on that occasion. Blinkers go on for the first time today and the draw should see her on the speed again. Will take some catching. DANEA ROCK (9) finished off nicely from midfield here last time out when racing over the mile. Back in trip is some query, but she'll carry no weight after the claim and she has to be respected. PRIZED BENEFIT (10) is better than she showed last time out and can improve coming back to this trip. LONG WAIT (8) is next best on resumption. SUGGESTED PLAY: Il Bello Beals makes the most appeal.
