EDINBURGH REALTY/PETER LYON SHEARING 2200m Track: SOFT 6 Out 3m from 1400m to 350m Cutaway, Remainder True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Just a moderate tempo headed by Love Leigh, A Mandarin and Caffeinated. KINDLING SPARK (3) has needed both of her runs to date, and she hit the line strongly when finishing fifth over this trip at Ashburton, and she will be dropping down a class for this. Hard to beat. MISS ENZED (4) peaked on her run when resuming here in February, and then improved sharply to finish second by a head at Riccarton 11 days ago. She has a good chance to upgrade her modest track stats. Each way. PULL THE PIN (8) will find this easier than her last couple of starts over a mile, and she will also appreciate stepping out to 2200m for the first time this prep. Each way value from the pole position. LOVE LEIGH (10) ran a much better race when running on strongly to finish fifth here just over a fortnight ago. The extra 600m is the key here, and she has solid each-way claims. KOYAMA (2) is always running on, and if the track becomes a bog, then he is always worth including in all top 4 combos. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kindling Spark to win this.
