GOING: G(4)

CARBINE CLUB QUEENSLAND MAGIC MILLIONS MAIDEN PLATE 1400m

Track: GOOD4   Rain (Max: 27)   Rail: True. (Pent: 4.88)  

Difronzo to push forward on the fence and lead a race lacking pace. The $250,000 Maiden Plate. SPANISH TREASURE (10) is unlucky to still be a maiden hitting the top-four in all four starts to date and will strip fitter second-up from the spell. Gets the services of Berry in the irons to navigate from the sticky draw and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. SNITZEL MISS (16) brings Sydney form to the picture and gets the deadly Waller/McDonald combination. Will be rock-hard fit for this and can make her presence felt. CRASH THE PARTY (12) has placed four of six overall including one over this seven-furlong journey. Include from the favourable draw. The well-related AGRAFFE ROCKET (2) (half to G2 winner Paris Dior and G3 winner Queen Of Dragons) narrowly went down at Randwick on debut and gets a jockey upgrade in the form of Rawiller. Watch for sharp improvement. HIT THE SWITCH (6) makes some appeal despite the wide draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 10,16,12,2.
