GOING: N

CELEBRATING KATH MUIR PACE 1690m

Track: GOOD      

KRAKEY (1) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last four starts, most recently recording a third over 2190m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is set to continue his impressive recent form. MUSSEL SHOALS (5) disappointed last time when eighth over 2190m at this circuit. Can make amends. WINGATE GUY (8) had a wide draw last time but placed from this barrier prior. Should enjoy a nice trial. MAHINDI (7) continued the consistent form with a last-start placing and while drawn wider she performed well from this barrier in her previous two outings.

Two back was sixth after being driven well back, behind Sumthin Else at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 51 on March 3 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Return Serve at this track over 2190m in a NR 45 to 50 on March 8 at $9. One of the better chances.
