Sportsbet Same Race Multi Handicap 1050m

Track: Soft 6   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: +4m 1200m-W/Post, True Remainder. . (Pent: 6.25)  

Plenty of pressure on from the outset. Tough race with several last-start winners clashing with a few debutants. ANGEL LADDER (4) appears a progressive filly after making her own luck on the speed and winning in maiden grade in Victoria last time. She draws wide here with a bit of speed drawn inside her but she should be able to race handy and will get every chance for Todd Pannell. MISS TORMENTA (8) was brilliant on debut at Balaklava in a race that rated well. Expect she can go on with it and she looks the main danger. CAPTAIN HAPPY (3) is another last-start winner and the form has been franked since. Including BUBION (5) at longer odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Miss Tormenta each-way.
