GOING: G(4)

MICWAY MIDWAY 3YO MAIDEN HANDICAP 1300m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 33)   Rail: True . (Pent: 5.30)  

An absence of early speed provides Zougotme with the opportunity to lead. ZOUGOTME (12) finds a winnable contest fourth-up from the inside draw. Worked hard early from the outside gate and the early effort took its toll in the straight with a fading sixth over 1300m at Kembla Grange. Will push forward again and take catching. No excuses today. COSMIC AVENGER (2) made rapid improvement at his second run back when relished the extra trip to go under narrowly with a nose second over 1300m at Kembla Grange. Stalks the speed and shapes as the main danger. THE PROSPECT (1) Trapeze Artist gelding who resumes after failing to make an impression on debut when fifth over 1250m at Newcastle in Cl1 company last October. Wasn't pushed out in his two trials and gets every opportunity from the inside draw. SHE CAN SALSA (6) Per Incanto filly from Visible on debut for the Ed O'Rourke stable. Won her latest trial in good style at Warwick Farm over 1207m. Must respect on her home track. SUGGESTED PLAY: Zougotme and Cosmic Avenger can fight it out.
