GOING: G(4)

TEAM THOROUGHBRED NSW TRAINING ACADEMY COUNTRY BOOSTED CLASS 1 & MAIDEN PLATE 1600m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 34)   Rail: +5m 1400m-WPost, Ture Remainder.  

Share Our Secret and Sabatina are both expected to press forward and take it up. PRIDE OF JEZZA (2) was an eye-catcher here fresh when rattling home from the tail to grab third. Sure to have tightened from that run and will relish the rise to the mile. With McDougall sticking, he looks very hard to hold out. Stablemate SUPER NIC (10) is mixing his form but was brave here last time when beaten a head. The in-form Boudvillain takes over and he looms as a clear danger. SABATINA (6) has returned in good order and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside. Had excuses when a beaten favourite at Wellington and can bounce back sharply. TIS NO MAN (3) was a determined maiden winner two back at Queanbeyan before a sound midfield effort at Albury. Still has scope for improvement and is among the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pride Of Jezza to win.
