GOING: S

We Will Remember Them Maiden Plate 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 4m Entire, Sectional 608m.  

Pace on from the outset with Shampas and Six Stars going forward ahead of Nicish. SIX STARS (5) was showing promise last spring during his initial campaign and was a solid fourth as favourite when resuming here just over a fortnight ago. He can secure the run of the race early from the perfect inside draw and with the natural improvement that is expected second up, he is the one to beat. Follow your money. NICISH (11) is heading the right way and will peaking her fitness third up. She only needs a change of racing luck after copping a run of bad draws and is capable of taking this out. TARA RANI (14) ran the race of an improver when finishing third at Clare nearly 4 weeks ago. She is a progressive type who can figure in the finish again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Six Stars.
