CONGRATULATIONS BRIGADES, GNFL PREMIERS 2025 HANDICAP 1413m

Track: GOOD4   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: +5m entire.  

Pat's Last Bang and Talk To Wyn to take it up. TALK TO WYN (2) won well two back at Northam before leading them up at Belmont last time out and finishing 4.1L off the winner. The inside draw should see him close to the speed and the 3kg claim is a big tick for him. Can bounce back in what looks a suitable event. PAT'S LAST BANG (5) disappointed two back but turned in a better performance last start at Belmont. Expecting her to take up the running from a favourable barrier and getting back onto a good deck can see her improve. Can make her presence felt. VIVAROK (6) ended last campaign in good order at this track. This looks a good starting point for him down to 1400m and he'd been placed over the mile in recent events. Hasn't won for a while but can play a role. GAV HAS SPOKEN (4) disappointed last time out but may have been unsuited by the Heavy deck on offer there. She's a track and trip winner previously and she can turn her form right around. TIGER LINE (1) is in the mix first-up for the new stable. SUGGESTED PLAY: Talk To Wyn looks the one to beat.

The run before that won by 0.7 len at Northam Cl1 September 4 over 1300m in soft going defeating What's The Point with 56kg at $5. Looks better suited at this level and can return to winning ways.
