GOING: N

Simons Carpets Devonport Benchmark 76 Handicap 1009m

Track: SYNTHETIC     Rail: True.  

Periwinkle is the likely leader at a slick tempo. ANYWAYS ROXIE (1) is speedy and brings compelling form to resumption. She's proven fresh and owns a trial win. She's sure to take beating. BOLD INSTINCT (2) flies at this track and trip and delivered a 68 here last time from the front. Has winning claims holding that form. PERIWINKLE (5) runs along and didn't see out the longer sprint at Hobart. She was narrowly beaten at her two starts before and will present at peak fitness. Gets in well with the 2kg claim and placed her only start this course/distance. ARUMA (4) has been within range and wouldn't be out of it if things go her way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Anyways Roxie appeals.
