GOING: S(5)

MGI JOYCE DICKSON HANDICAP 1000m

Track: Soft 5   Clouds (Max: 34)   Rail: +8m Entire. (Pent: 4.16)  

Anticipating good pressure with many of these lining up for the first time. Tricky. MASHEAN (6) resumes today and surprised the market when missing a whisker at Kembla Grange on debut. Placed in a recent Warwick Farm trial and maps for a soft run. Speed bred and represents a top Sydney barn. OCEAN EMPRESS (9) debuts and spaced the Warwick Farm triallists in preparation for this. Maps positively and expect her to race boldly. ALL EXCEED (1) resumes for a smart local stable that always demands respect. Got too far back as a short-priced at Albury on debut and got too far back. Has trialled well enough and goes in everything. COOL BLAZE (4) is race fit and got closer at Orange last time. Has an awkward gate but can make the frame with average luck. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mashean appeals most.
