GOING: H(9)

THREE RIVERS MACHINERY CASE IH CLASS 1 & MAIDEN PLATE 1600m

Track: Heavy 9   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: +4m 900m-300m; True Remainder.  

Crown Legend to take up the running with Instead and Twenty Four Guns close at hand. HIDEYO (10) at her peak for this and has her hoof on the till. Launched late when an unlucky third over 1600m at Dubbo in a strong race. Buckley sticks and capable of taking this out. CROWN LEGEND (6) jumps to the mile for the first time after finishing a plugging eighth over 1400m at Orange two-and-a-half weeks ago. Was just under a month between runs at latest and expected to play a leading role today. INSTEAD (7) lightly raced mare improving with racing. Won two back, before jumping in trip when a gritty on pace second over 1600m at Dubbo. Drops in weight again with the claim and will prove hard to run down. SWEET AS A KISS (12) progressed nicely last start on the firmer surface when second over 1400m at Dubbo. Can race closer from the good gate and take a hand in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hideyo to win.
