GOING: S(6)

ACW Facility Services Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: SOFT 6   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Expecting Let Lily Loose to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. Looks the ideal race for LET LILY LOOSE (5) who presents third up. Two runs back have been good despite going under at $1.50 and $2.60 - tackling a stronger maiden at Sandown Lakeside last time over this trip, pulling up with excuses. She gets a bit of gear changed here and finds a fairly thin maiden here. SAYALERO (9) wasn't far away first up at Geelong when working home fairly off a slow speed over 1225m. Up in trip should suit nicely, she'll be hard to hold out late. ENCHANTED LASS (1) is racing consistently, back in trip slightly here off two solid mile runs. She should be thereabouts again. JEZEBEL JENNI (4) resumes having finished last on debut at Bendigo, on wet ground there. She could be a sharp improver with gear changes made this time in. LOMENIE (7) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Let Lily Loose to win.
