GOING: G

Border Inn Hotel Moama Handicap 2100m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 30)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Armino, Zibulon and Chase Your Dreams to take up the running at a strong tempo. Tough race. CHASE YOUR DREAMS (7) wasn't beaten far last start at Cranbourne and had been in great form prior, winning two and just missing in another. Better for that run over 2080m last time, she can improve again and go close. SKY OUT (3) hasn't won in a long time but presents here third up and ready for a peak performance. His best form would give this a shake, don't discount entirely. OLNEY (9) won his maiden over 1950m two back, okay in town last time when back in trip. This looks more suitable. ARMINO (1) is racing well and can figure. SUGGESTED PLAY: Chase Your Dreams to win.
