GOING: G(3)

LADBROKES MEGA MULTI BENCHMARK 62 Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 3     Rail: +0.5m 600m-400m; True Remainder .  

In a small field either Drialle or Sir Goldalot will find the front. TSUKINO (8) dug deep to score two runs back then was beaten 6 lengths into fourth over 1350m at Ipswich last time a month ago. Comes down a level this time and is sure to go well. DRIALLE (1) finished 2.5 lengths back in third over 1300m at Ballina last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Sure to be competitive. JUNGLE FEVER (4) was in the money two starts back at Sunshine Coast but couldn't back it up last time when seventh, beaten 2.5 lengths, there over 1200m. Has his share of talent and can do a lot better. SIR GOLDALOT (6) was too bad to be true fresh. Will find this easier and can improve sharply. Don't take lightly. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tsukino to win.
