GOING: G

THE AGENCY Maiden Plate 1090m

Track: GOOD     Rail: True.  

Without a designated pacemaker it will probably turn into a dash home. PHIL UP (4) met with solid support last start over 1030m at Gympie when third. Strong winning chance. BELLAH'S HOPE (5) improved last time out, finishing just 0.6 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 800m at Thangool. Tackling a more suitable race so she is perfectly placed to score. FROSTY'S GOTCHA (3) did little and finished a dismal tenth over 1400m at Rockhampton last start. Look for an improved run. SOYDECAFFLATTE (2) finished ninth at his most recent appearance over 1400m at Rockhampton after he got a long way back in the run. Worth consideration. SILVERTAIL (6) is on debut and has the right profile to figure in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,5.
