GOING: G(4)

NSW JOCKEYS ASSOCIATION HANDICAP 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 7m Entire. (Pent: 5.37).  

Solid tempo anticipated with Dipsy Doodle heading them off. Multiple Group 2 placegetter VIVY AIR (2) is resuming and is undefeated over this trip. Stretched out to the 1800m when a sound fifth in the G3 Auraria Stakes at Morphettville four months ago. Since fitted with two trials and has the ability to finish over the top of these. CINEMATIC STAR (8) has fitness on her side and comes out of a strong race after finishing fourth over 1100m at Randwick on July 13. Desperate for a firmer surface and go on her slick win three-back. UNSTOPABULL (4) starting to hit his straps this time in and going nicely through his grades. Gapped his rivals when a dominant 6 len winner over 1200m at Warwick Farm on July 10. Kept up to the mark with a recent 900m trial on July 23. Claim helps again in this stronger race. COSMONOVA (7) underrated mare who gave a glimpse of her ability when a tenacious winner as fav over 1100m at Canterbury on July 24. Well drawn again and expecting her to keep improving this prep. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 2,8,4,7.
