GOING: G(4)

TAB HIGHWAY HANDICAP 1250m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 22)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 4.94)  

Plenty of speed with Ramones, Kimberley Moon and Hellinda leading Master Of Disguise and Kaihoko. MASTER OF DISGUISE (6) nice filly who keeps raising the bar. Returns from a let-up and chasing her third straight victory after demolishing her rivals in easier grade over 1200m at Wagga Riverside on December 24. Since fitted with an 800m trial placing at Goulburn. Can stalk the speed and go close in this tougher event. KIMBERLEY MOON (3) has the excellent record of three wins from five starts and deserves her chance in town. Anchored with the 61.5kg when a hard-fought winner over 1150m at Beaumont (Newcastle). Gets nice weight relief with Stapleford's 3kg claim. One of the leading contenders. UNREACHABLE (11) finally drawn a good gate fourth-up after running on late when an unlucky second to Kimberley Moon. Maps to get the right run. SHE WITHIN (9) smart filly who had to work hard from the wide gate when a fading tenth at Randwick over 1200m in this class on February 8. Can bounce back tonight. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 6,3,11,9.
