TABTOUCH - WESTSPEED PLATINUM WINTER SERIES FINAL 1400m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

Strong tempo assured from Kelvinater and Diamonds'n'rubies leading the charge. MT SHIRATAKU (1) is in good order, missing in a photo finish last start when flying late in the race after ending up a mile back in the run. A better draw this time helps and now Pike hops on board. Can bounce back to winning was in what looks a targeted assault. RAINLINE (2) also finished off impressively from a long way back in the same race as Mt Shirataku, ending up 0.5L off the winner. She can sit much closer this time around for Brad Parnham, with Pike hopping off her to ride Mt Shirataku. Leading chance. DIAMONDS'N'RUBIES (6) won well fresh before a 1.3L defeat to Mt Shirataku 28 days ago. The soggy conditions should suit and out to 1400m also looks ideal. Needs a touch of luck from the draw but is good enough to knock this off. SPEED BUBBLE (3) beat a few of these last time out and can repeat the dose. RIGHT TO SILENCE (10) has to be included third-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mt Shirataku gets the nod.
