GOING: FM(2)

TRISH TRICKY'S CLEANING BENCHMARK 60 Handicap 1200m

Track: FIRM 2     Rail: True.  

Expecting Scarlett Thunder to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. Former SA galloper SACHEM (1) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 6 lengths when sixth in a 1350m contest at Strathalbyn five weeks ago. This is easier and has the talent to take care of this field. ALPINE RAIDER (6) finished 2 lengths from the winner in fifth last start over 1200m at Texas, an improvement on his tenth at Ipswich the run before. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. MR WANDJI (3) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Dalby over 1200m. Perfectly placed and is sure to feature in the finish. BORN FEARLESS (2) finished second two runs back at Roma then improved last time out to score by 4.5 lengths over 1000m there. A must for the multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 1,6,3,2.
