KOKODA TRAIL HANDICAP 1550m Track: GOOD4 Clouds (Max: 17) Rail: True. (Pent: 5.3). |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Moderate pace from Princess Rayaa who should be able to get across from the wide gate. DEFINING (2) a consistent mare who looks to have come back much stronger this prep. Won well on resumption before having no luck when a close-up third over 1400m at Warwick Farm on April 1. Rawiller keeps the ride from the good draw and no excuses here. PRINCESS RAYAA (7) progressive mare from the Maher yard who resumed with a promising second over 1400m at Warwick Farm on April 1. Goes well at this track and trip and is desperate for this distance and further now. CABACA (4) has been up for some time now and total forgive from the wide draw when a plugging seventh over 1600m at Caulfield on April 6. This is much easier and should get the right run today. Has each-way prospects. MOUNTAIN GUEST (3) Group 3 placegetter. Had no luck at Canterbury when sixth over 1550m in stronger company on April 17. Go close. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 2,7,4,3.
