PLAY SOCCER 6, 10 AND 13 OPEN MAIDEN 1900m Track: AW 3m out at the 421m mark |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Hot early pace is on the cards with Player X, Wolfram and Crystal Maiden matching motors. CRYSTAL MAIDEN (4) ran a solid race to finish second of 12 over 1600m on the turf last start when sent out as the odds-on favourite. She raced from a handy position but found one too good on the day. She will like the rise to 1900m and rates well as one of the leading chances. WOLFRAM (3) is better than his last two starts on the turf would suggest. He has finished second twice and third twice from five starts over this course and distance. With luck in the running after jumping from his wide draw can finish in the top-three. IMHOTEP (5) met with solid support last start over 2400m at Fairview when finishing sixth of seven. Has jumped as the favourite in both of his last two starts and can atone. HE'S A GAUL (6) finished third of seven two starts back over 2400m and then last start ran fourth of 12 over 1600m at this track when sent out at long odds. He jumps from an inside draw and can place.
