GOING: H(9)

SOUTHERN ASSET SERVICES MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: +6.5m 1200m - 350m, Cutaway Applies, +3m Remainder.  

Not seeing a great deal of early speed. POSTWAR (3) excellent return from the long layoff with a gritty on-pace second over 900m at this track in the heavy conditions. Fitter now and nicely placed to take this out. SHE'S FIRST LADY (10) covered ground in the run and far from disgraced when fourth over 900m at this track two weeks ago. Adept in all conditions and stays in the mix. AERIAL ARTIST (1) finished a game on-pace fourth two-back, then covered ground with a plugging sixth over 900m at this track. Tricky gate again and has a fitness edge over the bulk of these. Keep safe. SENSESATIONAL STAR (9) resumes and has claims while fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Postwar is expected to shed his Maiden tag.
