GOING: G

SAMANTHA ELLIS & MAUREEN AXON MEMORIAL MAIDEN 1400m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 28)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

Expecting Super Sentai to lead Mr Karadec at just a moderate tempo. WILD THINGS (10) hit the line nicely fresh before a 0.8L defeat out to this trip last start at Belmont, turning in a strong performance in tougher company. Fiore hops in the saddle now and she has drawn to sit closer this time around. Can go a couple better now in what looks a very winnable race for her. FIELD MISTRESS (11) was swamped late at this track fresh, sitting handy over 1200m but ending up 3L off the winner. Pike hops in the saddle now, replacing the apprentice hoop and she had trialled nicely coming into that race. Fitter now and can turn in a better performance. MR KARADEC (4) is another who had trialled nicely coming into his debut, finishing 1.4L of the winner when closing strongly over 1200m at Bunbury. Out to 1400m is a big tick for this son of Castelvecchio and another bold showing is expected. SUPER SENTAI (3) will find this easier than his debut effort at Ascot and has to be included. JOYOH (8) was solid over this track and trip last start and has claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wild Things looks the one to beat.
