GOING: S

Festival Hire Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: Soft 6   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.18)  

From their wide draws Amanda's Joy and Kikkuli will press on and set a geniune tempo. TERMINAL SHOCK (13) is an improving type that has been solid enough in two runs this campaign. She steps up to 1400m, draws well and gets in with a luxury weight after the claim. Happy to have her on top. Liked the way ANAHORISH (6) finished off at the end of 1000m on debut. Straight to 1400m, she can get settled closer and will be finishing off powerfully. GOOCHEE GAL (10) has run well behind some handy horses recently and looks well placed in this maiden, while KIKKULI (2) keeps running well and is a top three chance again. Happy to give BELLE FROM HELL (7) one more chance and throw her in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Anahorish each-way.
