GOING: G

PFD Foods Fillies & Mares Marquee 18th April Book Now Handicap 1100m

Track: Good   Clear (Max: 30)   Rail: True.  

Slick tempo with Chief White Sock to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. PUB CRAWL (4) is part of the Healy team having first start this area but comes here in great form in SA. Speedy type drawn low and will take catching. REVOLUTION RISING (2) returned over 1000m here and ran well, finishing runner-up. Fitter and looks a top chance to go one better. CAP TEN (5) is a former Victorian who wasn't far away at Edenhope last time. First try this area and rates highly on best. CHIEF WHITE SOCK (1) was fourth fresh after a long spell but will be far fitter for it. This suits and expected to improve sharply. HELL OF A GENT (3) is also fitter for a solid return and will be winding up late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Pub Crawl.
