GOING: G

AVON VALLEY POOLS HANDICAP 1200m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

Expecting Super Sunny to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. PRETTY DEVINE (1) bounced back to form two back before dipping again last start in a stronger event. Drops down to a BM44+, but the claim of Webster and her racing pattern are both big ticks. Can find the front and be very tough to reel in. MISSILE GIRL (3) comes here first-up and has been placed when fresh in the past. Yuill takes the ride from a good draw and her form last campaign in Victoria makes for good reading. Can make a positive start to her new life out west. CLASSIC ROYALE (8) comes here third-up into the campaign after a narrow defeat last time out over 1100m. Back out to 1200m shouldn't be an issue and he should get all the favours from the draw. Big chance. MOLLY'S MY PAL (9) has to be included on the back of a solid trial recently. SUPER SUNNY (4) can improve third-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pretty Devine looks the one to beat.
