SADDLERY WAREHOUSE 1300m Track: True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A hot tempo is expected with plenty of speed engaged. LHASA (1) will be peaking third up, and though his stats at this stage of his prep are not there, he should still be far too good for this field on this track. He carries clear top weight, but we have him on top. PERFECT DIVIDENDS (2) has found form again since racing on this surface, and he is the main threat to the top pick if there is to be one. BUCCINO (5) broke through for an overdue maiden win here in her penultimate start, and then was a well beaten fifth on this track nearly 3 weeks ago. Stick with her in the small field. BANNEN (4) will appreciate being back on a synthetic surface after 3 fair efforts on the turf in some good fields recently. Top 3 claims. EMMY DAZZLER (3) resumes from a spell, and she usually needs a run to get ready. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lhasa should win this.
