GOING: G(4)

REDI2HIRE MAIDEN PLATE 1175m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 32)   Rail: +3m 1200m-W/Post, True Remainder.  

A keen early contest likely with Tomanado and Hustler's Ambition pushing for the lead with Bella Akeed and Overimpatient on their backs. BESSIE LA BELLE (13) progressed nicely last start when lining up for the second time, making good late ground to be beaten under a length over this course and distance. Draws a far better gate today and McDougall replaces a 1.5kg claimer. Ready to win. BELLA AKEED (9) overcame an awkward jump to close well and finish fifth last time out over 1200m at Echuca. Plenty of improvement to come and gets all the favours from the inside alley. TRIBAL LANDS (12) ran a better race last start when he came from last to get up for second over 1200m at Echuca. Might travel closer with the blinkers on for the first time today and is a definite threat. RIVERBEND UNICORN (3) is back from a 19-week spell. Filled minor placings at the first two runs of the maiden campaign, both here at this trip. Must be respected. TOMANADO (4) was poor last start but might improve over this longer trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Bessie La Belle.
