IMPERIAL RACING BENCHMARK 72 Handicap 2150m Track: GOOD 4 Rain (Max: 22) Rail: True. (Pent: 5.1). |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Strong early tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Prime Impact. HELEVA DEEL (17) battled on strongly to finish fourth at Eagle Farm last start in a tougher lineup that day. She won her only start on this track and was a brave winner at Toowoomba in her penultimate run by a nose. She is looking for a firmer surface than she struck last start and should be among the hardest to beat in this. SHEZADANDI (2) was third as favourite in the same race as the top pick last time out and won't mind the easing in class here. She is as consistent as they come and is overdue for her next win. Follow your money. BRINGME (7) is racing in career-best form and he tried hard for fourth as favorite here 12 days ago, finishing fourth on a track that was wetter than he likes. He can make the most of an inside gate and another honest effort is expected. SIR ZINO (11) should be ready to fire after 3 runs back from a spell and even from a wide gate, he is worth including in all combinations. Each way value. SUGGESTED PLAY: Heleva Deel to win.
