GOING: G(4)

THINK FENCING QTIS Three-Year-Old BENCHMARK 58 Handicap 1200m

Track: Good 4     Rail: True. (Pent: 5.68)  

Indubitably and Zheng You will press forward in a keen battle for the lead. ESPRIT DU JOUR (5) resumes here but the form she showed in her first preparation was good enough to play a major role in a race like this. Has a win and a second from two attempts over this six-furlong journey and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. GREEN LABEL (6) got the maiden out of the way last time out and winning hoop Molloy sticks in the saddle. Again gets the benefit of her claim and rates a serious contender. BLANTONS RUN (1) didn't measure up in Listed company at the latest effort but will find this task much more to her liking. Can bounce right back. LIGHTNING STRIKES (4) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. INDUBITALY (2) hails from an astute barn, draws low and gets 3kg off with the claim. Ticks a few boxes. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 5,6,1,4.
