GOING: H(8)

9Mile Fresh Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: Heavy 9   Rain (Max: 18)   Rail: Out 6m Entire Circuit.  

Genuine tempo with the speedy Exit Strategy leading the way. BOA VISTA (4) resumes for the Price and Kent Jnr team, who clearly have an opinion of her given the company she has kept in her first three starts, bumping into some sharp types along the way. Two crisp jump outs have her ready to launch fresh. Stockdale sticks from the latest and the inside draw ensures she is right there in the firing line. TILLYA TEPE (9) is building the right way and was a flashing light here last week when strong late, only beaten 1.9L in seventh. Fitter now and capable of causing trouble late if the tempo is genuine. EXIT STRATEGY (6) couldn't convert her jump-out form on debut at Caulfield Heath when sent out a $7 chance, but she will be better for the experience and is worth forgiving. BON AURELIA (2) is a lightly raced six-year-old resuming and has jumped out well at Cranbourne. She can add value to exotics at a big price. ROSE SANGRIA (3) has not inspired confidence at the jump-outs but should be kept safe based on her debut run last campaign. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boa Vista to win.
