GOING: S(6)

LAWN PRIDE AUSTRALIA MAIDEN 1650m

Track: Soft 6   Clear (Max: 17)   Rail: +13m Entire. (Pent: 5.70)  

Iraychoux to take charge ahead of Sneaky Session at a good tempo. IMPRESSIVE JEWEL (6) was tested in strong races her past couple and wasn't disgraced in the Belmont Oaks last start. This is a much easier event and although she drops in grade, she's highlighted her quality in recent performances. Was close to a maiden win to start this campaign and can get the job done now. SECRET INTENT (7) is on the quick turnaround after a narrow defeat last week at Pinjarra when finishing off strongly. She can land in a handy position from a good gate and the booking of Steve Parnham is a positive sign. The wet track is no issue and she's sure to go close. IRAYCHOUX (5) wasn't beaten far on debut when favourite in the same rave as Secret Intent. Better for that effort and with improvement likely, he won't be far away. CANTILEVER (3) finished off strongly from the back last week and has claims. NOBLE REIGN (2) can bounce back following a disappointing performance last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Impressive Jewel goes on top.
