GOING: H(8)

Terang & District Co-Op Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 6.05)  

No recognised leader so Boggy Creek Boys could find himself in front. SADLERS SYMPHONY (6) looks well placed first up. He got over a trip quickly in three runs in his maiden campaign, but the debut run over this trip at Hamilton was good before just missing at Geelong. This doesn't look the deepest maiden and he can be an improver this time in. SOLDIER BOI (7) resumes having run a solid race behind Storm Leopard who has since gone on to place in the G1 ATC Derby. He was spelled after that run and is open to plenty of improvement. BOGGY CREEK BOYS (4) just found one better on debut at Warrnambool over this trip in an encouraging effort. He'll need a good ride but can go one better. NO NO NO NO NO (5) was okay on debut and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sadlers Symphony to win.
