GOING: G

Meridian Horse Transport BM60 Hcp 1350m

Track: SYNTHETIC     Rail: True.  

Genuine tempo from Kireina Marubrah leading Steele My Sunshine. ALPINE BLAST (8) is going better than recent form suggests. Almost all career wins have been on the all weather here and last start got home hard over 1650m. Come back in journey but will be tough to stop late. SIMPLY DEEP (3) tackled th4 dame race as Alpine Blast last time and beat home home. Going well and also looks hard to beat with any luck from the wide gate. STAR FORTIAN (10) is another going better than form suggest and best for has been on the synthetic. Ready to win and gets chance. STAR TERRITORY (4) wound up strongly here last time and rates a top chance this line-up. STARDARMUS (5) was runner-up here last time and among the chances again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Alpine Blast could be value.
