TEAM WEALLEANS 1200m Track: HEAVY 10 True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Pace strong with Shamel Express and Don't Tell Rachel leading with Litteral nearby. DON'T TELL RACHEL (7) she has run well in both starts this time in. Drawn nicely this time. The 4yo mare is a good win chance. SHAMEL EXPRESS (1) ran a good second here fresh up but then went poorly last time. He is a quinella and trifecta chance for sure. LITTERAL (9) looks a big improver here after fresh up effort. Drawn wide here but this is her home track. ELLE MCFAB (8) is a four-year-old mare (Fabulous - Sofortuitous) on debut. She has had four trials for a win and a fourth. Dam has left the full brother Youledo (1 win). Not out of this at all. GRACES GIFT (11) has been poor since a placing four starts ago. Not the worst here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Don't Tell Rachel is the one to beat in this line up. Box the quinella as a saver of her, Shamel Express and Litteral.
