GOING: G(4)

CALOUNDRA RSL Class 5 Handicap 1200m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 28)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.38)  

Surreal Ascot and Zingalong possess good early speed. BOLD JULIUS (4) may have suffered from the dreaded second-up syndrome last time out but the form prior was full of merit. Is yet to miss a drum in three spins over this track and trip and should give backers a great sight. TOO MANY THOUGHTS (5) has won two of three this preparation and gets a stack of weight relief with the 3kg claim. Can make his presence felt. THATS ARCHIES GIRL (7) wasn't disgraced in town at the latest outing and should find this assignment a touch easier. Include from the inside marble. BEWS (1) is a two-time winner over this six-furlong journey and will be ready to peak now. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 4,5,7,1.
