GOING: G(4)

Sportsbet Rating 0 - 58 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 31)   Rail: True.  

Bonjour Mon Amour should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep her honest. FOURTH POWER (1) resumed here and belted the 56 graders by 2.1L tracking the lead. Uses the low gate and will be further improved. Has a 3kg claim and can take the next step. BRAZANO (3) resumed with a 1.2L defeat in stronger in town and then went back and failed to threaten at any stage. Fitter and drops plenty in grade. Will give away a start but is in well with the 3kg claim. MYOCEAN WARRIOR (2) has been busting to win and the Port Lincoln form in particular reads well. Has the blinkers first-time applied and the rails gate should advantage. BONJOUR MON AMOUR (6) won the Maiden here first-up and then didn't finish it off at The Bridge. Fitter and has a 3kg claim. Uses the handy gate and will give a sight. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Fourth Power.
