GOING: S(5)

UNITE RESOURCING HANDICAP 1000m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 18)   Rail: True.  

Nonesospicy and Last Stylebender can be prominent. ZOURUN RUN (9) missed in a photo fresh when closing strongly late over 1200m. Back to 1000m is a query, though she should be in a handy position from barrier two and she's expected to have come on from the fresh run. Back in good order and can raise the bar now. IN CONFIDENCE (8) showed plenty of talent in her debut campaign, though that was now 12 months ago. Her latest trial was strong however and Fiore sticks from that latest heat. If she can pick up from where she left off a year ago, she becomes an exciting proposition moving forward. ELITE BEAU (5) got back and never featured first-up at this track and trip when the race favourite. He'd trialled well coming in, so happy to forgive one poor run. Expecting him to bounce back in a big way today. LEMMOR (7) ended last campaign in strong order and looks ready to pick up from where she left off last campaign judging by her recent trial. NONESOSPICY (3) is racing well and will give them something to chase. SUGGESTED PLAY: Zourun Run can go one better this time around.

Disappointing fresh, but he's better than that and can bounce back to his best.
