GOING: S

Rental Management Australia Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 17)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.6).  

Moderate tempo with Jay Bee Ell leading the way. MONEY TEAM (7) runs along and peaks for a top metro barn off two near misses in provincial company Draws well and is on a 9-day return. Liked him before the key threats were scratched and he sets a decent standard. FIGHTING EDGE (3) has disappointed twice since the promising first-up effort. Finally draws a low barrier and has a handy 2kg claim. Peaks and he can go a lot better today. AILYAK (1) debuts for the premier stable (Maher). Mott is a positive jockey engagement and he's sure to be well-prepared. CHAMPAGNE SABRE (15) resumes and showed enough two-back at Geelong on debut to suggest he can get into the money naturally improved. Maher-trained JAY BEE ELL (6) had good support at Ballarat on debut but was plain and a post-race vet exam revealed a slow recovery. He has had a month away and has to be kept onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Money Team to win.
