GOING: G(4)

HABITAT PLANNING COUNTRY BOOSTED CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1175m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 18)   Rail: True.  

Lots of speed predominantly from Imposing Tallulah and Box Of Crackers. The fleet-footed IMPOSING TALLULAH (5) bounced straight to the lead and gave nothing else a chance last start in a maiden over this course and distance. Lightly raced filly who is progressing well and can cope with this better company. MISSILE MAIDEN (8) struggled to run a strong 1460m at Queanbeyan last time out, finishing midfield. Very fit mare who is back to her right trip and should play a big role. BOX OF CRACKERS (4) led from barrier rise to collect her maiden win recently over this trip at Wagga. Took a long while to break through but should be prominent again with the confidence up. KAIDA BLAZE (2) resumes. Registered a win and three placings in the four runs of her maiden campaign. New to this distance but must be respected. SAINT LOFT (3) is ready to find form after three runs back from a spell. SUGGESTED PLAY: Imposing Tallulah to win again.
