GOING: S

Polvin Fencing Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 15)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Hot pace certain. Plenty of chances. TALBRAGAR (9) resumed for a new stable and was excellent in a good race at Flemington. Rates highly off that and the rise to 1200m looks ideal. Big chance. OUR RED MORNING (15) is a nice type resuming. She too may want a bit further but will be hard to hold out. END ASSEMBLY (6) creates interest at his first run for Moody & Coleman- 3 lengths off Lady Laguna first-up last time in reads very well. BELLINGER (10) wasn't far away last time when third over 1200m at Moonee Valley. Big chance on his best form. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 6,15,6,10.
