GOING: N

ON POINT UTILITY LOCATING Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: Synthetic     Rail: True.  

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Leica Pherrari. ENHANCE (3) resumes for a sharp local barn, and the form is compelling. Her trials have been top-notch, and Lloyd stacks from the latest. MARATHIA (10) peaks off a 1L defeat here. Has a 3kg claim and will use an inside barrier. The yard gets plenty of winners here, and she's a danger. STARSARISE (8) resumes and has placed 2/2 fresh. She's switched from a NSW barn, and the form reads well enough. PADAM PADAM (2) has a 2kg claim and races forward. In the mix if he found his best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Like Enhance.
