SDRA COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS FEB 28 TICKETS ON SALE NOW MAIDEN HANDICAP 1200m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 31)   Rail: +3m 1400m-W/Post, True Remainder.  

A keen contest with Instigate and Outcast Ally leading from He's Our Boy. Another tricky maiden. OUTCAST ALLY (13) returns and has her first run for the Pepper camp, who has proven quite handy with tried horses. Trialled sharply in readiness and gets the key booking of hot-hand hoop in Boudvillain. Can make the perfect return. JUDITH'S REVENGE (12) never looked likely here last time when settling a long way back but was a flashing light late to finish a close sixth. Peaking now and should settle much closer from the inside alley. Sure to be very competitive. SHOWTIME MAGGIE (6) returns for the Dryden & Snowden partnership. Was solid on debut back in August and strips fitter for a Canberra trial. Can make her presence felt. EBONY EYES (3) is a debutant filly worth keeping safe from the Bloomfield camp. McDougall sticking from her trial her creates intrigue. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Outcast Ally.
