GOING: S(6)

PRYCE MINING SERVICES HANDICAP 2132m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: +7m Entire.  

Not much early pressure but Onemoreforleo, Sunny Times and Jet Planes can take up forward spots. SUNNY TIMES (8) steps up in distance again following a 4.9L defeat on the Fibre Sand at Bunbury last time out. Back onto the turf looks a big tick and his run over the mile here two back stacks up. Right down in the weights now and can play a leading role. ONEMOREFORLEO (4) disappointed here last start over the 1760m journey, but he showed he's better than that in his runs prior. The draw can see him in a handy position in the run and he can bounce back to his best form. SLUICE BOX (2) finished 1.7L off the winner last start on the Fibre Sand track at Bunbury. The rating there stacks up and although he hasn't won for a long time, his last start showed he's still capable. Can put his best foot forward. SANTA BRAE (1) disappointed last start but is better than that. Drawn well again today and can improve. JET PLANES (7) wasn't far away at big odds last start and is worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sunny Times gets the nod.
