GOING: S(7)

FOUR PILLARS MIDWAY 1500m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.69)  

Strong tempo with Jack Duggan, Debello and Monkhana leading the way. Tough race with the capacity field. MERIDIANA (1) classy mare who returned for her second prep when rounding them up effortlessly for a sharp win over 1300m at Rosehill. Kept up to the mark with a Randwick 1050m trial. Races best fresh and will benefit with Stanley's 3kg claim. Looks destined for stronger races. VETWELVE (10) another from the Sargent yard with his hoof on the till after his two sound minor placings. Stalks the speed and gets his chance. JUMEIRAH BEACH (8) massive run first-up with the 63kg when strong late to run fourth over 1250m at Taree. Up to his pet trip and look for him late. PRINCE OF SORTS (6) kept fresh and gets his chance with the right set-up from the draw. Value player. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 1,10,8,6.
