KOSCIUSZKO TICKETS ON SALE SOON MAIDEN PLATE 1262m

Track: HEAVY 10   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: Out 4m 950m-300m. Out 3m Remainder.  

Strong pace from The Simple Life and Ferrimo matching motors. DIVINE BENE (1) recorded his third consecutive minor placing when a game second over this course and distance 16 days ago. Starting to test backers' patience but he is always competitive under this scenario and today should be no different. FERRIMO (2) returned from a four-month spell with a desperately close second over 1007m at this track recently. That was the first appearance under Ross Stitt after switching from Victoria. Can go on with the job. THE SIMPLE LIFE (10) has been freshened up and has transferred from Ciaron Maher to Neil Godbolt. Best form is over more ground but she might surprise. MASCHE (12) failed here at this trip last start but deserves another chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: The Simple Life each-way.
