GOING: G(4)

TAB FASTER VISION Class 2 Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: +5m 1000m-W/Post; +3m Remainder. (Pent: 4.70)  

Yeah Copy to take charge ahead of Calyx Rose at a good tempo. CALYX ROSE (5) has switched from a NSW barn on a 46-day return. She's placed in a Beaudesert trial and would win this comfortably if presented ready. The betting will be key. LONE FORCE (1) was better again when winning a 58 at the Sunshine Coast. Maps to get every chance and has decent claims. MOONFLEET (2) won this grade before the spell and was slow off and very plain first-up. That was out of character and fitter a much better effort is likely. FLY FIFER (3) is third up and was close up in stronger last time. She will be around the mark if the awkward gate is managed. SUENITO (11) finds tougher grade, but he sits at the bottom of the handicap and is free running. Will give a sight on the quick back-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Calyx Rose is the one if the betting suggests stable confidence.
