GOING: H(9)

BIDGEE PUMPS & IRRIGATION SUPER MAIDEN HANDICAP 1400m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: +3m entire.  

No recognised leader on paper but Royal Overture has the pace to take it up despite a wide gate. ELSISI (7) ticks a few boxes today third-up from the good draw. Sharp rise in trip with a battling eighth over 1400m at Corowa. Down in the weights and the winkers go on from the low gate. Leading player. ROCKABYE ROXY (8) strengthened over the break with a fast finishing second over 1205m at the Sapphire Coast. Can go on with now and will be strong late. MAGNUS MAXIMUS (1) three runs in have been encouraging and should have little trouble stretching out to the 1400m. Failed to give up when a tough third over 1200m at Swan Hill. Finds a winnable race and sure to be thereabouts. MANZOBEEL (12) comes back in trip and due for a change of luck. Caught on a limb with a gritty second over 1600m at this track. Ugly map again and don't dismiss. SUGGESTED PLAY: Elsisi can improve quickly with the winkers going on.
