GOING: H(10)

FORDE WINDERS SHEARING/RIVERTON BUTCHERY FAIRFAX HANDICAP 1200m

Track: HEAVY     True  

There looks to be ample pace and pressure in this field from barrier rise. MEDINA (5) is fresh up for a new yard. In a very winnable race here for sure. JUSTANACE (1) has been placed in both runs here. No wet track issues so is a top tier must. KAPALKA (10) course proven. Wet tracker. Trifecta and first four must. LIPA MALA (14) is a class dropper here drawn wide but can still cope. Wet ground suits. Threat. ABIT SASSY (12) class dropper. She can handle most types of footing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Medina and Justanace are win wagers.
