GOING: G(4)

FINANCE TYCOON AT KOORINGAL COUNTRY BOOSTED SHOWCASE MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 20)   Rail: +4m 1400m-W/Post; True Remainder.  

Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a genuine tempo. UNICORN DREAMING (3) is a gelding by Sports Edition on debut for Anthony Craig. Showed good improvement in his lead-up work when in the placings at most recent Wagga Riverside trial. Looks ready to run a big race. HEZRUSHIN (11) is facing the starter for the first time. By Russian Revolution and hails from the Wayne Carroll stable. Strips fitter for two solid trials and draws well for Keatings. Can make a bright start. LORD LIMERICK (6) resumes. Mixed his form in his debut prep but holds peaks that can measure right up. With natural improvement during the break he can play a major role fresh. MISS HARD COPY (10) showed good early muster on debut but tired late. Is sure to have come on from that and has enough speed to quickly offset the wide draw. Expect her to give plenty of cheek. RED ROCKS BEACH (7) returns and looks best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Unicorn Dreaming.
