GOING: G

United Insurance Group 3YO Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.29)  

Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a genuine tempo. BEDTIME ANGEL (7) resumes and has the best numbers thus far. She's been tried at Stakes level and won a recent Cranbourne jump-out. She races forward, and a senior rider is booked. BAZABALL REWARDED (6) brought strong form to Ballarat, but in the stretch the rider was unable to test the filly at any stage. The in-form Stackhouse is aboard today, and she can fight out the finish. CINCINCITY (8) resumed in good order at Ballarat. She will be better for that and deserves plenty of consideration. MORAL TURPITUDE (3) debuts, and his lead-ups have been good. Maps for a soft run, and McDougall's booking interests. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Bedtime Angel.
