GOING: G(4)

Cressy Chaff Cutters Longford Cup 1st January Maiden 1600m

Track: GOOD4   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: +7m Entire. (Pent: 4.69)  

Genuine tempo with Beau Warrior leading the way. ROUSING LEVI (6) stepped up to this distance at Hobart, beaten 1.6L. It was a good effort, and he should be presenting at his peak. Has a handy 2kg claim today and is ready to win. NORTHERN CHILD (5) strips fitter for two close-up efforts at Hobart over 1200m. Has the outside gate, but the step-up to the mile is sure to suit. He will be finishing hard. STRIDING BAY (4) has been plainer at Hobart his last two but just missed here prior over this distance. Gets a gear chance and Newitt rides from an inside gate. On song, he'd be hard to beat. LADY BE COOL (11) is in good hands and up to a mile, quick improvement won't surprise. TIMMIE LAD (8) did nothing last time after a promising debut over 1400m at the track. Has the inside gate and may be worth another chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Rousing Levi.
