GOING: G(4)

LADBROKES MATES MODE RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD 3     Rail: True.  

Tetchy is expected to lead at a slick tempo. ARCTIC BEAR (1) looked handy breaking the maiden status at Toowoomba when resuming before just running into one better there last time out. Huxtable was in the irons for that last-start placing and stays on board here. Should be right there when the whips are cracking. CRYPT DE PIN (7) finished off last preparation with a maiden victory and has since been given a five-month spell. Can run a race while fresh. HE'S A DEVIL (4) strips fitter third-up from the break and may earn some minor money. TETCHY (14) has been racing well in lesser company and has earned her shot at this grade. Maybe a place. SUGGESTED PLAY: Arctic Bear to salute.
