GOING: G

Colemans Printing Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 23)   Rail: True.  

Lots of speed predominantly from Kickatorp, Supreme Times and Red Wraith. RED WRAITH (4) despite missing the placings turned in a strong run in tougher race when sixth over 1200m at this track. Well placed here and is right in this. LIBERTY BLUE (3) is a tough veteran who found the going a bit tough in a hot field here a fortnight ago. He is better placed in this grade and will make full use of the pole position. He might be running for second place only and is a definite include for all combinations. SUPER FAMOUS (5) has been racing at Morphettville most recently and should find things more to his liking here. He has a good record on this track and can figure in the finish this time. KICKATORP (2) always tries his best and his third in a good lineup here last start caught the eye. Stick with him. RED WRAITH (4) was sixth here last start in the same race as the fourth pick and seems better placed over this shorter trip. Include. SUGGESTED PLAY: Red Wraith on top.

Last start won by 1.3 len at this track Hcp April 7 over 1000m defeating Doc O'connor with 58kg at $5.50. Fitter and should relish the step up to 1100m.
