KB CONTRACTORS 1200m Track: Heavy 9 True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Plenty of pressure primarily from Deciphering Me, Full Cream and Grove Street. GLACIAL STORM (10) showed talent when trained in the North Island, and she is now with a new local stable. Tina Comignaghi picks up the ride, which is a strong lead, and she is sure to attract plenty of attention in the market. LITTERAL (11) is another ex-North Island-trained runner who returns for a new trainer after failing to fire at Tauranga before heading to the paddock. She is stronger now, and from the pole position, she will be ready to rumble fresh up. UNDISPUTED (1) made a huge statement first-up when demolishing his maiden rivals by six lengths at Ascot Park over 1200m when making his South Island debut. He can take the next step immediately. GROVE STREET (3) has been racing recently at Riccarton, and his form was better before that in this area. He has a good gate and is worth including in all combinations. DECIPHERING ME (8) resumed with a fast finishing second at Riverton just over 3 weeks ago, and she has top 4 claims again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Either Glacial Storm or Litteral can win this, and Undisputed won't be far away.
