GOING: G

Ultima Hotel Maiden Plate 1200m

Track: GOOD 3   Clouds (Max: 19)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.02)  

Anticipate a moderate tempo is a race devoid of recognised speedsters. HUSTLE (10) kicked off her career three back with a 1L defeat at Moonee Valley. She resumed with a place at Kilmore and looked a run short. Coffey will position her forward, and fitter, she's likely to have these covered. PENDELLA (4) was slow off and wasn't beaten far at Kyneton. She's again likely to give away a start, but will have come on, and has each-way claims. IL AMERICANA (1) has two placings from six outings this prep. She was plainer last time but has been freshened with a tick-over trial. She can get back on track. JUMPIN' JEWELLETTE (3) debuts with a 4k claimer booked. Jumped out okay recently at Wangaratta and no surprise if she goes okay. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Hustle to win.
