GOING: S(5)

BEERS AND BIRDIES DASH MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: True.  

Strong tempo, primarily from Eyewhykaywhykay and Showtime Kistena. CALAIS BLISS (8) stalked the leader then tried very hard but was denied by a long neck when resuming over 900m at Albury last start. Has failed to fire beyond a first-up run in three tries to date but that return marked a career-high performance so she looks to be back better than ever. LORD LIMERICK (7) was backed from 3.1 to 2.5 on debut over 900m at Albury nine days ago but after racing wide could only manage fourth. Draws the fence this time and gets an extra 100m which is ideal. Big chance to open his account. EYEWHYKAYWHYKAY (9) has not raced since showing pace then weakening on debut over 1175m at Albury six months ago. Placed in a recent jump-out so worth monitoring for market support. FORTE CHEVAL (2) went well last start and is a chance with winkers on for the first time. INDUCTION (3) has been well found in early markets and is worth keeping safe on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Calais Bliss each-way.

First starter. Four-year-old gelding by Holler out of Induct. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 900m at Albury October 11. Good early support suggests he might have something to offer.
