GOING: S(5)

Hammonds Paint Coleraine Hurdle 3300m

Track: SOFT 5     Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.80)  

Leaning to ENCHANTED ELLE (3) who broke through for an easy win over three rivals last start at Casterton off the back of some encouraging form prior. Some smart types here but tipping she measures up strongly once more. ALHAMBRA PALACE (1) is the one to be wary of. He started $2.05 favourite at his hurdling debut at Hamilton and couldn't have been much more impressive, scoring by 4.5 lengths. He's lightly raced and boasts good flat form. Pateman on again, he should go close. PEARLMAN (4) is going okay in some good races, solid in his past couple. Can run well. DUBAI MOON (2) has had a steeple trial since a last start flat effort. Can box on late. SAINT EUSTACE (5) hasn't jumped for a while but could show up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Enchanted Elle on top.
