CENTRAL WEST POWER CONSTRUCTION BENCHMARK 58 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 1010m

Track: GOOD4   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 3.5m 500m-300m Cutaway Applies.  

Abundant early pressure from the speedy pair Loving Angel and Destiny's Bounty. DAGON (5) close to his top now third-up and comes out of a strong race when a narrow fourth over 1000m at Wyong on March 14. Races best with runs spaced and expected to go close today. NONSHALAANT (4) fitter now and gets the 4kg claim again after showing plenty of fight when second over 1010m at this track on March 24. No excuses here and can go one better. BEAU FACTOR (8) tough gelding who returns from a spell of eight months. Undefeated here and this looks his pet trip. Sprints well fresh and will relish the drop in grade. DESTINY'S BOUNTY (1) scored a long overdue win when taking to the front with the 59.5kg to salute over 1100m at Cowra on March 4. This is tougher but not to be underestimated. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dagon to win.
