GOING: G(3)

NUTRIEN AG Class 3 Plate 1000m

Track: GOOD     Rail: True.  

Karatemiss and Country Boyz to match motors but there will be plenty of pressure from other quarters. MR EVANS (3) brought Toowoomba form to Betoota 7 days ago and belted the 45 graders by 4L. The longer sprint should suit and he rates to go on with it drawn to advantage. COUNTRY BOYZ (1) flopped last time but the Barcaldine placing prior was good. He resumes in easier grade with a handy 2kg claim and is proven fresh. Uses the rail and has claims. RELICTA (2) mixes the form but will be around the mark bringing his A-game. KARATEMISS (5) has been struggling for form but may get some minor cash. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sticking with Mr Evans.
