GOING: S(7)

GERRY BROWN'S SHELVING & STORAGE Class 1 Handicap 870m

Track: SOFT6   Clouds (Max: 24)   Rail: True. (Pent: 6.4).  

I Am A Marvel and Super Exceptional can set a swift tempo. TRICKETEER (5) is a local on resumption. He had just one start last preparation placing at Ipswich over a short sprint as favourite. The prior form stacks right up and he's likely to come back further improved. Goes fresh and rates to be right in it. I AM A MARVEL (4) is a leader who placed here first-up before delivering an easy Maiden win at Ipswich. Draws to advantage and Callow sticking is a decent push for his chances. Fitter and no surprise if he goes on with the job. DEAR PRUDENCE (9) led and delivered a heavy track Sunshine Coast Maiden win following a switch from a sharp Sydney yard. She's been freshened and kept up to the mark with a 650m trial win. Lightly-raced and looks capable of taking the next step. INATICK (7) resumes and has shown enough to consider. Led and won easily his only fresh run and will be naturally improved. The awkward barrier needs managing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Tricketeer.
