Sportsbet Jockey Watch Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: HEAVY 8     Rail: True.  

Expecting a moderate tempot with a lack of speed horses engaged. Looks a great opportunity for the two-year-old TEMPT THE GODS (12) to break his maiden against the older horses. He wasn't beaten far first-up and he'll have taken natural improvement from the run. He's drawn well and maintained fitness with a trial between runs. He can give ATC Derby winner Levendi his first win as a sire. CANYON WIND (2) showed decent improvement between runs last start. The stable is flying and he can be competitive here. EVEN IN AMERICA (9) Supido filly from Inthenameofliberty on debut. Among the placings in a recent trial and stable strike-rate with debutantes is strong. CALM THE PRESS (1) did okay on debut last start when fifth over 1000m at Casterton. Can contest for a place. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Tempt The Gods to win.
