GOING: S(5)

Sportsbet Same Race Multi Maiden Plate 2000m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: True.  

Sloane Raider is likely to roll to the lead and set a decent tempo. TWO STROKE BABY (12) only got out late in the piece at Swan Hill but did warm nicely when clear. Strips fitter third-up and shouldn't be bothered by the rise in trip. This looks her best chance yet to break through. LILLIKINS (8) finds the maiden win elusive but has runs littered through her form that can measure up strongly this time. Warmed nicely late last start to grab fourth. Major player if she can hold that form. CELTIC PARK (5) is appearing for the first time. By Ocean Park and comes from the Patrick Kearney stable. Has been trialling well and looks forward enough. Can make a bright start. VIVID BLOOMS (11) progressed nicely second-up when sticking on soundly into a midfield finish. Has more to offer and the rise in trip suits. SUGGESTED PLAY: Two Stroke Baby gets the nod.
