GOING: G

LTL Cole Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Handicap (Div 2) 1000m

Track: Good   Clouds (Max: 32)   Rail: True.  

Small field but expecting a genuine tempo with plenty of pace engaged. SUITS (3) showed good speed here last time over 1200m and led into the straight before tiring to finish fourth, beaten 6 lengths. Paul Denton stays on. Back in trip and will take catching. STELLA BYSTARLIGHT (2) returned from a long spell and ran well when placed here over 1100m. GAME COVE (5) is resuming and is a fresh-up winner. Well placed here and should be right in the mix. HELL OF A GENT (1) is a former Victorian who should be set for a bright return. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Suits.
