GOING: G(4)

CALLIDE VALLEY TOYOTA Class 1 Plate & Maiden Plate 1600m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: True.  

They should roll along at a decent clip. ANCIENT MISSION (4) has hit the frame in two of her past three outings and looks ready for the step-up to the mile journey now. Strikes a winnable contest here and should be going very close. SHABOOH SHALAA (3) will be rock-hard fit for this, gets plenty of weight relief with the 3kg claim and draws to get a gun run in transit from gate two. Ticks a few boxes. SMOKIN' DE QUO (6) placed in her first run for the new yard and gets a jockey upgrade in the form of Stanley in the irons. Top-three aspirations. FINE AND RARE (8) has placed four of seven over this distance range and has been thereabouts in recent efforts. May earn some minor money. OPTIMUS MAXIMUS (2) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ancient Mission to salute.
