CHOP CHOP HEDGE TRIMMERS SPRINT 1000m Track: SYNTHETIC True |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Speed should be right on over the 1000m journey. SHAVASANA (5) has performed well on the Cambridge poly track earlier in her career, and she resumes from a spell with only 54kg to carry in a soft field. She has pace, comes to hand quickly, and we like her to win this. Follow the market moves. SHOWBASTIAN COE (1) dug deep and fought hard when finishing runner-up by a nose here 3 weeks ago. He has a terrific record on this course, and he will be spot on with his fitness third up, so stick with him. SESIMBRA (2) is a stablemate of the top pick who had an excuse at her last start before a spell. She has won fresh up in the past, and cannot be taken lightly in this. BODACIOUS KATE (3) caused an upset when winning over the second pick by a nose here last time out. She does save her best for this circuit, and with the same weight to carry, there is no reason why she can't repeat the dose. KARYON (4) has been racing well enough this prep. Include. DANCING SHADOW (7) is still on the up, and VANBRUGH BELLE (6) has to be respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Shavasana can win this.
