GOING:

RACING240 MR 96 HANDICAP 1400m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 18)    

Plenty of pressure with Imaginable, Strathclyde and Master Forester leading the charge. STRATHCLYDE (1) is better than his last start over this distance on the Greyville polytrack. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. He has won three times, finished second once and third once from eight starts over this distance. He is having his first run for Alan Greeff and if settled into his new surroundings, he may be the horse to beat. LANCIAFIAMME (6) has good recent form lines to his name. It must be noted that the form of his last race has been franked. Has each-way claims. MASTER FORESTER (2) should have finished closer to the winner last time as he was steadied at the 250m mark. Has won once and finished second once from as many starts over this course and distance. With luck in the running, he should be finishing in the money. DOWSER (5) failed to live up to expectations over 1600m at Fairview All Weather last time out when well supported. That followed a good second the run before. Likely improver who can place.
