GOING: H(8)

LIVING TURF Class 2 Plate 1300m

Track: Heavy 8   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: True. (Pent: 6.40)  

Anyway You Want It and Connecticut will press forward in a keen battle for the lead. LA MANO (7) made the most of a change of tactics and led all the way to score by nearly a length at Dalby 3 weeks ago. She has another good draw and gets to carry the same weight. Similar front-running tactics will make her hard to be pegged back again. DATA LEAK (5) raced a lot closer to the pace last start and after striking the front early in the run home, he fought back bravely to finish second at Ipswich 17 days ago. He can make full use of a superior draw this time and is good enough to go one better. ANYWAY YOU WANT IT (1) is normally very consistent when fit, and he was game in defeat when finishing third by half a length here nearly 3 weeks ago. He is peaking at the right time and has top 3 claims again. QUADRI (8) has been down on her best in all 3 starts this campaign and should now be reaching her full fitness. Include in all multiples. BOOGA RAY (6) has been racing more genuinely since joining the Mark Currie stable and was second at Gatton last start. Stick with her. SUGGESTED PLAY: Data Leak each-way.
