GOING: G(3)

EMERALD FORD QTIS Maiden Plate 1200m

Track: Good 3     Rail: True.  

A solid tempo is on the cards with Kenny The Baker and Saint Anns pushing for the lead ahead of The Jean Gina and Send The Money. LUNA READY (7) is a nine-start maiden who finished fourth at her most recent appearance over 1100m at Mackay. This looks a nice race for her to finally break through. KENNY THE BAKER (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Springsure over 900m. Drawn for a nice run just off the speed. Strong prospects. SPEED KING (2) returns from a spell of three months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished 11th at Eagle Farm over 1400m when first-up last time in work. Fitter for a fourth in a recent trial over 1050m at Deagon. Can make his presence felt. SAINT ANNS (3) turned in another moderate effort last start when seventh over 900m at Springsure. Suitably placed and can turn things around. SUGGESTED PLAY: Luna Ready to peak third-up.
