GOING: G(4)

NATIONAL JOCKEY CELEBRATION DAY BENCHMARK 62 Handicap 2150m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 14)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.8).  

Coney Island Baby has enough pace to cross from the outside draw in a race devoid of genuine early speed. ARCHER'S GAME (3) spiked her figures narrowly beaten over 1890m. Keeps the 3kg claim and the middle distance should be right up her alley. KNEZE (2) beat the above in that contest coming back in distance. He will push forward again and keeps the handy 3kg claim. Just has to run it right out. DROP THE PILOT (5) missed a whisker in that race sharply up in trip. Has a 2kg claim and maps well. The extra metres are the niggle. DEL CAMPO (4) is better than the form line suggests and he may be next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Archer's Game.
