GOING: S

Kwik Tip Bins Maiden Plate 1728m

Track: Soft 5   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.73)  

Scorpion should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. SCORPION (8) has been good in two runs to date, boxing on well at Caulfield Heath over 1600m last time out. Has drawn very wide but may look to roll forward and will stay strongly. ONE BROTHER (7) was close up on debut at Caulfield Heath, working home well with the tempo against. May get back from the wide draw again but has claims. CLYDEBANK ROBBER (4) is a 39 start maiden back in trip but can certainly add value to the exotics. ART 'N' SOUL (1) was better last time and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Scorpion to win.
