GOING: G

Royal Hotel Benalla Maiden Plate 1406m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.38).  

Off the low draw Suprendre can take it up a race lacking a genuine leader. WARBY RANGES (7) ran a couple of decent races in the 1300-1400m range to launch this prep then got too far back and was never a threat over the mile at Bendigo last start. Back to 1400m with blinkers on for the first time is an appealing scenario. Worth another chance despite the awkward gate. ONE SIDED LOVE (12) looked the winner near home but was ambushed and finished a close third when resuming over 1200m at Seymour last time out. Progressive filly who will be tough to beat with that run under her belt. POP QUIZ (13) has found the line evenly in her two runs to date, both over sharper trips. Capable of playing a role here over an extra furlong with the shades going on. SUPRENDRE (14) is back after a six-month break. Best form last campaign was at 1600m but while fresh with blinkers applied she looms as a threat. RISING WATER (5) next best off a 32-day let-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Warby Ranges deserves another chance.
