GOING: S

Campbelltown Catholic Clb-Bm78 1400m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 7m 1500m-W/Post. Out 3m Remainder. (Pent: 5.42).  

Pandora Blue to take charge ahead of Sally Pops at a solid tempo. FRUMOS (5) looks to be quite the talent and like her kept fresh (28 days) with a soft trial in-between. Should appreciate the firmer footing and while likely to get back from the draw, there is good speed engaged and she looks to get her chance to gun them down. TAWFIQ LASS (2) had a winning streak broken behind Sur La Mer last start but still ran well and McDonald takes over. Slight niggle at the trip but she still shapes as the main danger. RIDUNA (8) hasn't come out of the best form races, but makes her own luck on speed and looks capable down in the weights. SALLY POPS (6) has placed in three of four first up attempts and appears the next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Frumos to remain unbeaten.
