GOING: S(5)

Ladbrokes Popular SRM QTIS Maiden Plate 1560m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

A strong tempo is assured with Frosty's Gotcha and Check One Two leading the charge. GENERAL GORDON (6) finished just out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 2.75 lengths when fifth over 1600m at Rockhampton two-and-a-half weeks ago after being in the firing line on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. WILLOW CAPRI (9) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten a head, over 1300m at this track. Draws low and rates a leading player again. CHECK ONE TWO (7) improved last time out, finishing a nose from the winner in second at the end of 1600m at Rockhampton. Looks well placed so expect another big run. ALVIN (1) was beaten 2 lengths into sixth over 1300m here last time out. Capable of featuring prominently. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 6,9,7,1.

At the latest run eased back early on 6th of 10 at this track Mdn on June 11 over 1300m, 2 len behind Soydecafflatte carrying 58.5kg at $10. The race before that didn't do much in the run home; 5th of 14 at Echuca Mdn-Sw on May 11 over 1400m, slow going 6 len behind Regal Gent carrying 59.5kg at $14. In the right race this time and is definitely worth including.
