GOING: S

Mark Kirchner Food Service Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.57)  

Saraya is the likely leader at a keen tempo. MARTY MCFLY (3) was beaten a whisker in provincial company twice last preparation and can improve sharply from the solid first-up outing at Wodonga. Has the blinkers on for the first time and will run along from an inside gate. Well placed to be winning. Wary of AKUMA (1) resuming for the Danny O'Brien yard. He's been off the scene for nearly a year but has been gelded and has placed in two Flemington jumpouts. Yendall is a positive jockey engagement. SARAYA (8) has been within range before a plainer run last time. Has Meech on replacing the apprentice and she drops back to a shorter spring on a quick backup. Keep onside. FROSTY NIGHT (4) tries hard and has the winkers on again. Needs to lift, but she may be the best of the remaining runners. SUGGESTED PLAY: Marty Mcfly appeals.
