GOING: G(4)

ANGUS MEATS RATING 65 1600m

Track: GOOD4     True  

Strong pace with Sabots D'or, Bella Luce and Peekay paving the way. VICTORIAN CHARM (2) has been course proven. He has won on dry and wet footing too. Top tier chance here drawn well. GENERATION JOY (9) she has run well in all of her four runs this time in. Drawn not too badly in this. Definite quinella and trifecta chance here. BELLA LUCE (10) is a multiple class dropper in this on her last run. Wide gate here. Each way chance no matter the footing that is posted today. WATERGATE (12) has a very wide draw. The mare has been course placed before. Chance here at double figures in a capacity field. COSMETIC VIRTUE (18) is an on-pacer of late. Carpark barrier here but not out of this at all for your multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bella Luce is a win wager.
