GOING: G(4)

BILOELA HOTEL OPEN Handicap 1300m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: True.  

Cracking tempo looks assured with many of these capable of pushing on early. PAPASITO (7) was a touch disappointing last time out but the two wins to start the campaign were good enough to feature in a race of this nature. Goes well for hoop Stanley who has three wins and two placings from just seven steers and rates the testing material against this lot. DIDDLEY SQUAT (5) got a well-deserved victory at the latest effort and will have derived a stack of confidence from that win. Rates a serious contender. MOMACK (4) gets in well at the weights with the 4kg claim and has been racing very consistently of late. In the mix. REAL KEY (3) is one from one over this course and distance and is usually thereabouts. Can make his presence felt. LETMELETGO (1) next in line from the favourable draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Papasito to return to the winners' stall.
