GOING: G

Evergreen Turf Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD 3   Clear (Max: 28)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.32)  

There should be a bit of pressure with Artistic Dancer and Aureate pressing forward in advance of Serin and Shesoutofthisworld. Very open. SUPER SNITCH (2) turned in a much better ran third run back when placed in a tougher race at Warrnambool. Has a low draw and a repeat would see him go close. AUREATE (5) has placed at both runs this time in and looks an obvious danger. Long overdue for a win but won't get a better chance to find best form. ARTISTIC DANCER (7) was ridden back last time and got home over slightly shorter. Doesn't win often but placed only try here and now at peak will sit closer and should be in the finish. THE DAILY PLANET (4) has been freshened up since finishing eighth over 1600m at Terang. Kept up to the mark with a recent Ararat trial placing. Worth including in calculations. SHESOUTOFTHISWORLD (9) has also been kept fresh and is much better than last couple. Could feature at odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Follow up on Super Snitch.
