GOING: H(9)

PAULELE @ DARLEY HANDICAP 1550m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: Out 6m Entire. (Pent: 6.08).  

The speedy O'ziggy should find the front comfortably. UTOPIAN WINE (5) blew the start and failed to recover when resuming over 1300m at Kembla recently. Recorded a career-high figure when successful second-up last prep over 1600m at Gosford. Can bounce back in a race knocked about by some key scratchings. DARK GLITTER (9) has struggled of late but does go well for Molly Bourke who is back aboard. Chances of late have been hampered by getting too far back so this small field suits. Likely improver. Probable leader O'ZIGGY (4) is back sharply in trip but he should dictate cannot be ruled out with the blinkers back on. AUTUMNMATION (8) has campaigned successfully in Brisbane this prep. Waller has found a thin race for her return home so another big run will not surprise. Not keen on the rest, headed by EYEQUE (10). SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Utopian Wine.
