GOING: G(4)

David 'DT' Thomas Memorial Provincial Pathways Final 1800m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 25)   Rail: +3m Entire. (Pent: 5.44)  

Solid tempo with Midlife Crisis to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. BARGAIN BOY (7) was no match for a smart winner in the LR Port Adelaide Guineas but stuck on well for a midfield finish. Now finds an easier race with Craig Williams a key switch to help offset the wide draw. WINE BARRON (3) improved sharply at Gawler when ridden forward and now backs up quickly. Fitter and can go one better rising to a winning trip. ROUSING REFRAIN (9) also comes through the PA Guineas and was doing his best work late. If they roll early he will be charging home t the business end. IN THAT MODE (6) is flying and only needs to hold his form to be right there again, though the trip is a new test and may expose him late. JOVIALE (11) was too bad to be true last start but has prior form that stacks up, so he cannot be underestimated. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bargain Boy to win.
