GOING: S(5)

EXCEEDANCE @ VINERY STUD HANDICAP 1600m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 18)   Rail: +5m 1000m- Winning post, +3m Remainder. (Pent: 5.03)  

A race that lacks early pressure on paper. CONCORDIA WIND (11) has produced a couple of eye-catching runs this prep, the latest over 1400m at Kensington track when she came from last on the bend to be beaten just 0.6 lengths. Drops 4 kg after Grima's claim. Watch for her to be finishing over the top of them in the dying stages. ISLAND DREAM (7) missed by a whisker two back over 1500m at Rosehill then over-raced in a slowly run affair at Randwick last time and didn't finish off. Back in grade and cherry ripe after three runs back. Worth another chance. EXTRAORDINAIRE (3) whacked away from back in the field but was never a contender most recently over the mile at Randwick. Back to the midweekers and ready to find form at the fourth run from a spell. DANCES WITH HOOVES (9) had no luck at all when just outside the placings over the Randwick 1600m last start. Drawn awkwardly but with a bit of cover she can figure in the finish. EXISTENTIAL BOB (5) doesn't usually fire second-up but his run when resuming was full of merit. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Concordia Wind.
