GOING:

BISLEY WORKWEAR HANDICAP 2200m

Track:   Clear (Max: 28)   Rail: +13m Entire.  

Heaps Of Moolah is likely to roll to the lead and set a decent tempo. KEGGS LATER (2) was an easy winner over 2200m at this track, making it two wins in a row. He has come into his own this year and is perfectly placed with only an extra kilo to carry. The hat-trick beckons. OCEAN RANGER (9) was doing his best work late last start to get up for second over 2200m at this track. Should be winding up late again in this, and can have the last say this time. TOKYO FIRE (6) was running on strongly late to finish fourth last start over 2200m at this track. She has 4.5kg less to carry this time, thanks to a claim. Stick with her. EXPELLIARMUS (8) is better than his recent form suggests. He drops 1.5kg and is not the worst for some odds. DUCHEES DEMERIT (1) has not won for some time, and his recent form has not been too bad. He meets the right sort of field and can figure in the first four. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keggs Later to win.
