GOING: G

MEALES CONCRETE PUMPING HANDICAP 1103m

Track: GOOD     Rail: True.  

A solid tempo anticipated with Smart Shadow and Shooting Kontiki ahead of Protected Action and Incandescent Lady. Competitive. DIAMOND TIPPED (1) brings three comfortable wins and the last two have been here. The inside barrier is a slight niggle but he keeps improving and briefly freshened he'll hit the line hard. SHOOTING KONTIKI (3) has won two of his last three, both at Port Headland. Has a handy 3kg claim today and using an inside gate he will be tough to beat. INCANDESCENT LADY (6) stalked the lead and was narrowly beaten by the above last time. She's in light again with the 3kg claim and also has winning claims. SMART SHADOW (5) resumes and has been racing at metro and provincial level. Has the numbers and elevate if the betting suggests she's on song. YARDSTICK (4) would be a hope if he found this best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sticking with Diamond Tipped.
