MARTIN COLLINS AUSTRALIA QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 28)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.38)  

Miss Adrift to take up the running at a moderate tempo. KURITHEA (8) resumes here but the form she displayed in her first campaign was good enough to be competitive in this contest. Tuned up for this with a recent trial and must be respected out of the Archibald camp. Should be right there at the business end. MISS ADRIFT (10) went forward and stuck to her task well first up at this course over 1200m. Has placed two from three here and will strip fitter second-up from the spell. RUSTY TYCOON (4) was thereabouts in all three outings before being tipped out for further time to furnish. Can run a race while fresh. TURBO TORQUE (6) next best with Wiggins on board. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Kurithea.
