GOING: G(4)

SIGNPOST GOLDFIELDS RACING MUSEUM HANDICAP 1100m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.75)  

Strong tempo assured with Love Drunk Baby, Floba and Blue Can Talk rolling to the front. WINEACLOCKSUMWHERE (6) drops back to 1100m today after being caught late in the race at Belmont last time out. This is easier and Faithfull has a winning record aboard the gelding. Has an edge on ratings and if he can bring his recent form to this event, he'll be hard to beat. FLOBA (2) is a worthy opponent however, bringing up back-to-back wins to start his campaign. He has the speed to cross from out wide and he'll be at his peak third-up into the campaign. Progressing nicely and appears the main danger. LOVE DRUNK BABY (1) can roll forward from the draw and make his own luck after being gunned down most recently over 1200m behind Floba. He did jump favourite there, however, and was off a 30-day break. Better suited here and can bounce back. TOP FUN (10) was outclassed last start at Belmont and is better suited to this event. BLUE CAN TALK (3) was solid first-up and can build on that performance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wineaclocksumwhere can get back to winning ways.
