GOING: G(4)

Sportsbet Jockey Watch Handicap 1050m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 23)   Rail: +2m Entire; Sectional 602m. (Pent: 5.46)  

Reasonable tempo with Savagery Vibe probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. SAVAGERY VIBE (3) made the perfect return with a smart win at Pakenham, only won narrowly but always looked in control. Boasts an excellent record at this distance and has good tactical speed. Looks tough to beat again with Zahra sticking. LOVELY LOOKIN' (2) is a promising mare resuming for the Gluyas camp. Has always shown ability but hasn't quite put it altogether to go on a run. Been readied with a dominant Balaklava trial win and is aided under the big weight with sharp 2kg claimer Johnstone reuniting. Have to take seriously. KINETIC JEWEL (1) also resumes and is a consistent type who boasts a terrific record over this track and trip. Should not be underestimated in this. NURYS (8) has flashed home to just miss in her two runs back. Drops back slightly in trip off 6 week freshen. Watch for her late again. MISLUDI (7) is capable of featuring on best form. Keeping safe in exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Savagery Vibe will take some beating.
