GOING: H

Gawler Arms Hotel Maiden Plate 1500m

Track: Heavy 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: +5m 1450m to 900m, Incl Chute, +3m 800m to 400m. True Remainder. (Pent: 7.10)  

Moderate pace from Nunniong taking it up with Penny Bang Bang and Rhinestone Rory on his back. GARCON RENARD (6) was an eye-catcher fresh and then followed it up with another strong effort, beaten narrowly here last start. Will likely drift back from the draw and be saved for the final shot at them. Peaking now and should take some stopping. CLASSY CLARET (5) beat home Garcon Renard last start, sticking on strongly to finish second behind a smart winner. Has a hand full of ratings strong enough and is drawn to get the gun run. Bold showing anticipated. ALI FOREMAN (4) made up good late ground last time out after settling a long way back. Draws to go back again but he’ll be finishing hard. NUNNIONG (2) brings some decent Victorian form, having hit the line well to finish third at Sale last start. Should be competitive with that form and is in the mix. ROLL START (9) was a big improver last start when closing off solidly into third at Strathalbyn. Open to further improvement fourth-up and is among the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Slight lean to Garcon Renard.
