TOOHEYS EXTRA DRY CLASS 1 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 1100m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 31)   True  

From the inside gate Wandjina Gal has the dash to lead with Fighting Zed right on her heels. ROCKET RUDEE (5) justified the heavy support when he got the cash on debut last start over 1000m at Wagga. Good enough to cope with the step up in class - just needs a bit of luck from the wide alley. DOLLY (4) flashed home to finish second when resuming over 1000m at Wagga two runs back. Looked a bit flat last time over the same course and distance. Placed 3/3 at 1100m so she is in the right race to bounce back. ROWDY ANTHEM (6) stalked the leaders then proved a shade too strong on debut recently over this journey at Wodonga. Meets a far deeper field this time but there is plenty of scope for improvement. COMMANDORO (1) has been in the frame at all four runs this prep, the latest a narrow defeat over 1200m at Nowra. Will run his usual honest race. MISSY NO NAY (2) can do better third-up over a slightly longer trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Plenty of strong form lines converge. Leaning to Rocket Rudee.
