FWD INSURANCE BOCOM HANDICAP 1400m

Track: SOFT      

No recognised leader especially after the scratchings. GENEVA (5) stuck on well enough last start despite going under as a $1.50 favourite. He's since won a trial at Happy Valley and Blake Shinn hops in the saddle this time. The wide draw is a niggle, but the rise to 1400m should suit and he can notch up his maiden win. CIRCUIT FIERY (4) ran on strongly from well back to finish just 0.8L off the winner here 21 days ago. Purton remains in the irons for today's assignment and the pair have drawn a much better gate this time. Can sit a little closer and win without surprising. RUBYLOT (1) tried hard behind a dominant winner last start to grab second right on the line. The draw may be sticky with his racing pattern, but trust McDonald to get things right. Has ability, he just needs to put it all together. DREAM PURSUER (2) is racing well of late. Worth noting Bowman has ridden a couple of others in this race recently and now rides this gelding. Include.
