GOING: S

Evergreen Turf Plate 1400m

Track: HVY8   Rain (Max: 28)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Four Candles to take charge ahead of Unriddle at a strong tempo. Tricky race. TRIPLE TIME (7) resumes having been okay on debut at Ballarat in a high-rating maiden, working home from back in the field for a narrow sixth. Tipping he improves this time in off a few jumpouts for the top yard. FOUR CANDLES (3) was in the market on debut at Cranbourne when fading late and has been given time. His jumpouts have been solid and he can be an improver this time round. PARERA (5) was better last start at Kilmore over 1450m when sticking on for third. Expect he rolls forward again and takes some catching. BLACK EYED BLONDE (10) steps up in trip here off some sound runs this time in which should suit. She maps well. UNRIDDLE (8) can sneak into the minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Triple Time to win.
