GOING: S(6)

HAHN PREMIUM LIGHT CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1100m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: True.  

Keen tempo headed by the fleet-footed Hot Extraction. DILUTION (1) made light work of a maiden field at Narrandera last start. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped. HOT EXTRACTION (2) registered his first win last start at Wellington. This isn't too much tougher and he is capable of another big run. FREDDY'S SHOCK (5) was safely held when sixth last start at Wagga. That followed a good first-up win at Wagga. Well placed and can play a major role. SINGLE ATTRACTION (4) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dilution gets the nod.
