GOING: S(6)

ALL ASPECTS ROOFING BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1600m Track: SOFT 6 Clear (Max: 18) Rail: Out 5m 1100m-450m. True Remainder. (Pent: 5.58).
The pace looks modest at best. FROM THE BUSH (2) struggling for form of late and will appreciate the massive class drop today. Up in trip at latest from the wide gate when a plugging 13th over 1900m at Canterbury on June 10. Ticks plenty of boxes here from the good draw with the claim and expected to go close. VERBEK (8) has a sound record over this track and trip. Taken straight to the front and never headed when a slick 2.5 len winner over 1600m at Wyong on June 13. Expected to cope with the rise in weight and has the numbers to win again. MICKEY'S MEDAL (1) improving gelding who will find this easier fifth-up after sitting on the speed with a fighting second over 1550m at Canterbury on June 10. Has won at this venue and expected to take a hand in the finish. REMUS (7) strips fitter now after looking a chance at the 200m before failing to go on with the job when sixth over 1600m at Randwick in Midway company on June 8. Minor money prospects best. SUGGESTED PLAY: From The Bush to win.
