GOING: G(4)

SPRING CARNIVAL ON SALE NOW Colts, Geldings and Entires Maiden Plate 1350m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.20)  

No recognised leader so Hellabeel could find himself in front. FIDARDO (3) has done it both ways in his two runs back and should be hitting his straps now. Added trip won’t bother him. Big chance. SPEEDY CROWN (8) made a strong return at Ipswich when closing off nicely into fourth. He’s sure to have come on with that run under his belt and will appreciate the added trip. INDIGO STAR (5) finds the maiden win elusive but it certainly hasn’t been without trying. Has become costly for supporters but there’s ability there. Thompson takes over and he has to be taken seriously. PROPHET OF DESTINY (7) is knocking on the door and doesn’t need to improve much to finally get the verdict. Drawn to be blending in at the right time and is right in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Speedy Crown to win.
