GOING: G(3)

Lords Cleaning Service Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 37)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.41)  

Bimballa is the likely leader at a slick tempo. KEEP IT REAL (4) two-start gelding who finished runner-up in both starts in his first campaign. Wasn't pushed out in his two jump outs and the cross-over nose band goes on. Capable of finishing over the top of these. YES YOSHI (6) Yes Yes Yes gelding from a Camelot mare on debut for the Littlefield stable. Looked strong in his last two jump outs and stays in the mix. BIMBALLA (11) returns from a lengthy break after failing to fire on debut when last at Mornington over 1000m on May 26. Won his second jump out in good style and the lugging bit and winkers go on. Each way. TAN TAT ART (14) drifted back on debut and failed to get into the contest when seventh over 1203m at Kyneton. Cross-over nose band comes off and improvement is expected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keep It Real should prove too sharp for these.
