GOING: H

Adelaide Plains Bloodstock Maiden Plate 1516m

Track: HVY10   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: Out 5m Entire. (Pent: 6.61).  

Plenty of runners but the field lacks a pacemaker so a dawdling affair is on the cards. THINKINGNINTYNINE (7) has returned in good form this campaign and has built nicely into this to play a major role. Only just missed last start at Balaklava and the rise in trip should suit on the short turnaround. Leading player. MAXILDO (6) showed improvement in his second start when battling on into fourth at Balaklava three weeks ago. Can take another step in the right direction this time and is worth including. MANDINO (2) returns for the Phillip Stokes team. Will be looking for further the deeper he goes into the prep but this looks a good kick-off for him. Watch for him doing his best work late. SUPER INTELLIGENT (12) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Thinkingnintynine the one to beat.
