GOING: S(6)

TRAFFIC WARDEN @ DARLEY HANDICAP 1550m

Track: SOFT 6   Clear (Max: 16)   Rail: +5m Entire. (Pent: 5.34)  

Without a great deal of early pace evident Hasty Honey may lead the way over American Starlet. HASTY HONEY (1) can go on with things here off a dominant win second up over this track and distance when last seen, leading throughout from the soft gate to come away and score by 2.75 lengths. She draws the same marble here and claims down to a winnable weight. Go close. BELLA CORAZON (7) has come back well, running on well from midfield off a solid tempo to score nicely at Hawkesbury last time out. Can track up behind the pace here and looks well placed with 56kg and Lloyd aboard. CRIMSON MISS (8) is a lightly raced mare who found the line well at Newcastle last start with gaps behind. Has upside and can figure. SHE CONQUERS (6) struggled last time but could improve here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hasty Honey to win.
