I98FM'S FEEL GOOD FUN SUPER 3YO MAIDEN PLATE 1400m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: +7m 1100m-W/Post, +5m Remainder.  

Expecting Ballpark to lead War King at just a moderate tempo. WAR KING (7) progressive gelding improving with racing. Jumped in trip and grade with a fast finishing fourth over 1400m at Rosehill in a Super Maiden. Near his peak now and expect to see him hold a forward position today. Go close. BALLPARK (1) supported late in betting on debut when a slashing on-speed second over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Produced good figures on that occasion and has the class to overcome the sticky barrier. TOUSSAINT (13) relished the extra ground at her second run back when she held a forward position for a gritty third over 1400m at Scone. Can tag the speed from the low gate and prove hard to hold out. FREE AND FAST (5) Wootton Bassett gelding out of Charmont on debut for the Anthony & Sam Freedman stable. Has impressed in his last two trials and has a leading rider booked. Stable has an impressive strike rate with the first-starters. SUGGESTED PLAY: War King in a very strong Maiden.
