GOING: S(7)

STERILINE SUPER MAIDEN PLATE 1300m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: +4m 1100m - 450m, True remainder. (Pent: 5.70)  

Pace only fair with Heeza Steve rolling to the lead ahead of Final Spirit and Orange Tsunami. Chris Waller's race to lose with five leading prospects engaged. The best of them appears to be CLAUDEL (9), who drops in grade after finishing runner-up in two solid rating races in town. Can get cover from the gate and put these away. SNITZEL MISS (14) fourth-up today and indicated a win was imminent when she raced handy for a fighting on-pace second over 1400m at Kembla Grange. Back in trip and can roll forward from the sticky gate. Each-way. SALOON PASSAGE (13) chipped away late at her second run back with an even fifth over 1250m at Canterbury. Will appreciate a drop in grade with the in-form stable apprentice aboard. Respect. VIVA MAURICIO (5) Maurice gelding who resumes after finishing in the minor money in town last preparation. Back with the two trials and goes into the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Claudel can get the better of these despite drawing out.
