GOING: H(9)

Ladbrokes SRM in Multis Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: SOFT 7   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 6.22)  

Top Secret is expected to cross from a wide alley and lead. TOP SECRET (4) resumed with an encouraging run at Geelong before stepping quickly to 1500m and struggling as $2.40 favourite at Bendigo last time out. Has been given time between runs here and 1400m may be a sweet spot for him at this point in time. Should roll forward to offset the wide draw and take catching. DIOSA (8) has had a few chances but is racing well of late, not bad in third here last time out. Won't need to improve much to be fighting out the finish. TOPMOST (5) continues to race very well without winning, placing in his past six runs. That form has him one of the hardest to beat again. FUMAGE (9) resumes for her second campaign off the back of a trial win at Traralgon. Showed ability last time in and is expected to feature prominently. SMOTHER (3) was just fair fresh at Hawkesbury but will strip fitter and can improve. SUGGESTED PLAY: Top Secret to win.
