GOING: S(7)

PAT MURPHY RACING CLASS 3 HANDICAP 1000m

Track: Soft 7   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: +8m Entire. (Pent: 5.42)  

Miss Backchat, Helluva Teen and Asuriito to battle for the lead at a strong tempo. The speedy local HELLUVA TEEN (1) delivered the hat-trick before the spell and is likely to return further improved. She is free-running and is well-placed with Cahill's 2kg claim. She should be hard to beat. XSPIRITOUS (7) is poised to win, building on the three placed efforts in this preparation. Has been kept on the fresh side and flies around her home track. ASURIITO (4) also presents fourth-up and is going well enough to feature. He raced favourite at the Sapphire Coast last time, and tumbles in weight at this level. MISS BACKCHAT (9) resumes for a Sydney stable and just missed in a recent Warwick Farm trial. She won a Canberra Maiden here only fresh outing and should have the early dash to manage the awkward gate. Has plenty of scope for improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Helluva Teen.
