EDSA Group Handicap 1000m Track: GOOD 3 Rain (Max: 18) Rail: Out 7m Entire Circuit. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Strong pace with Trembles, Stokke and Bine pushing forward, closely attended by Mrs Archibald and Rich Dottie. Siding with STOKKE (3) who won impressively first up at Sandown Hillside over this trip, ripping clear to score by 2.5 lengths and notch her fourth win from 10 starts. She'll have to take a sit here but should track the speed and a repeat of that effort sees her go close. TREMBLES (5) has won three of five, too speedy again at Bendigo last time out as favourite. She should be very well suited flying around The Valley and will take plenty of catching. RICH DOTTIE (4) struggled first up in a stronger race at Flemington but boasts good 3yo form last time in and could improve quickly here. MCKEYLA (8) is tracking nicely in two runs this time in and has claims, although she'll need the right run from back in the field. BINE (7) was narrowly behind Trembles last time and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stokke to win.
