GOING: G(4)

OTT Clerk of the Course Maiden 1400m

Track: GOOD4   Clouds (Max: 25)   Rail: +7m Entire. (Pent: 4.56)  

Expecting A Queens Buzz to lead Light Force at just a moderate tempo. SYMPHONY QUEEN (10) peaks off two placed runs over this distance. Draws low, and the top hoop rides for the first time. She can break through in this line-up. RAIDER'S OWN (7) bounced straight back beaten 1.7L here over 1200m. The step up to 1400m suits and he rates to go close. LIGHT FORCE (3) just found one better well supported over 1200m at Launceston three weeks ago and placed his only go this trip. Peaks and has winning claims. A QUEENS BUZZ (9) showed plenty earlier but the form has dropped away. In good hands and they are persevering. May show more. LORD HEAR US (4) switches back from a middle distance and will be finishing it off. SUGGESTED PLAY: Symphony Queen to win.
