GOING: G

Young Guns Nov 1st Handicap 1000m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 33)   Rail: True.  

Expecting a strong pace from the outset with plenty of speed engaged. Tough. SPLISH SPLASH (5) led and won a 64 first up and is much improved. Has more weight but keeps the handy claim and she's won second-up. Can go on with it. REVOLUTION RISING (1) was plain last time after lifting strongly to score the one prior. Is back 200m for this freshened and he's won 2/3 here over the distance. Has to be kept very safe. TANGO STEPZ (3) ran a better race last start to finish a close third in stronger. Has her share of talent and despite the weight rise can't be ruled out. ARROGANT MISS (4) races forward and gets in well with the 3kg claim. In the mix putting her best foot forward. SUGGESTED PLAY: Splish Splash appeals most.
