GOING: H(8)

DRINKWISE PLATE 1100m

Track: HEAVY8   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: True. (Pent: 6.01).  

Solid tempo expected primarily from Love And Light and Te Pani. LOVE AND LIGHT (8) is a talented filly from the Waterhouse/Bott stable resuming. Has endured a disjointed career to date, racing just once last prep and missing the frame over this course and distance. Trialling in great style and looks set for a big campaign. DETENDU (2) returned from a spell a fortnight ago and registered his fourth minor placings from as many career runs when third over 1150m at the Kensington track. Genuine gelding who will race handy and give a bold sight again. GRAM (13) finished third on debut last start at Newcastle and it's hard to know how much improvement he can make on that effort. Worth consideration. SNUBA (10) started favourite on debut last start but struggled over 1300m on a heavy surface here. Trialled well since and is worth another chance coming back in trip. Market watch on DUMEBI (3) first-up since May 2023 for Ciaron Maher. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Love And Light.
