GOING: S(5)

LIFEFUL NDIS SUPER MAIDEN PLATE 1200m

Track: SOFT5   Clear (Max: 27)   Rail: True.  

Solid tempo with Star Prediction possessing enough dash to find the front. TI AMO TANTO (8) chipped away late when resuming with a sound fifth over 1200m at Newcastle. Capable of racing closer today from the gate and brings strong figures. Genuine top three player. REDUCIO (6) returns from a seven-month break after showing a stack of ability in her first prep. Chased hard at her second race start when second over 1200m at Kembla Grange on August 31. Returns with two tidy trials and will be strong late. CATONAHOTINROOF (4) unwanted in betting on resumption when attacking the line late for a solid third over 1100m here. Capable of going on with the job now. STAR PREDICTION (3) resumes after showing ability on debut when second over 1200m at Port Macquarie in a Super Mdn. Well drawn and can take a hand in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ti Amo Tanto to go close.
