GOING: G

bet365 Never Ordinary Maiden Plate 1450m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 28)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.44)  

Solid tempo anticipated with Shivermepink heading them off. SHIVERMEPINK (10) went well at Wyong and was sent south by a top barn and looked a run short at Sandown. She's won a Flemington jump-out since and has the first-time blinkers applied. Expect her to skip across and lead, and prove hard to roll. REBEL WOMAN (13) looked good in his Flemington jump-outs but failed to place at Geelong on debut as a firm favourite, and was found to have an issue. She's back after 25 days and is sure to be a lot sharper. QISMAH (9) impressed when placed at Sandown-Hillside on debut and then didn't handle the wet surface at Albury. Maps for a soft run, and she's good enough to fight out the finish. PHAROAH'S GLORY (8) just missed at Avoca on debut and showed enough to keep in mind. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Shivermepink.
