GOING: G

Fowles Wines Maiden Plate 1200m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.29)  

Moderate tempo expected with Bon Aurelia likely to find the front over Alvin and Royal Hill. ROYAL HILL (10) resumes and has raced well in tougher Maidens. He's had a couple of jump-outs, and first-up last preparation was only beaten 2.2L in a $150,000 Quality at Flemington. SMARTICON (11) resumed at Geelong, unluckily beaten a whisker. He has more to offer, and John Allen is a key jockey switch. A live hope. ALVIN (1) has an awkward barrier but is racing well and can get some of the better prizemoney. SNAKERATTLE'N'ROLL (12) peaks for a leading metero barn and can show more. A soft run is likely from the inside barrier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Royal Hill appeals most.
