GOING: H(9)

PROVINCIAL DISTRIBUTORS QTIS Three-Year-Old Handicap 1100m

Track: Heavy 8   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: True. (Pent: 6.10)  

Small field but expecting a genuine tempo with plenty of pace engaged. MISHANI CROWN (3) has placed two from two around this circuit and has been racing very consistently this time in work. Drawn to sit up on speed from the inside alley and should be right there when the whips are cracking. LA RAZA (5) got the maiden out of the way here on debut before being tipped out for time to furnish. Revved up for this with a recent trial placing and gets in well at the weights with the claim. Can measure up again. SHOWS A SIGN (1) is two from two here on his home circuit and has saluted on all going. Top-three hope. THROWNUNDERTHEBUS (6) resumes here for the new stable but the form she showed when last in work was good enough to feature in a contest like this. Can run a race while fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 3,5,1.
