GOING: G(4)

GALLAGHER INSURANCE BROKERS CLASS 1 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 1200m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: True.  

Hot tempo expected from Sheridan Street and Boom In The Dark. SHERIDAN STREET (12) made a perfect start to his career, leading throughout to score on debut at Gundagai. He was well supported in betting and showed professionalism beyond his experience. Improvement to come and she too should be offsetting the wide alley early. PAPARAZZO (5) broke through at start three when first-up at Benalla. Lightly raced and still on the up. Booking of Schiller adds confidence. MISS EMMA (3) put the writing on the wall last start at Canberra when beaten 0.8L. Gets her chance on the quick back-up. SANTASIA (1) continues to race well, recording consecutive placings. She’s honest and has the early speed to be in the firing line again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Sheridan Street each-way.
