GOING: G(4)

Vale Patricia McShane Open Handicap 1600m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 19)   Rail: Out 4m Entire. (Pent: 4.52).  

Small field so expecting a tactical affair. KALIUWAA FALLS (1) has won and just missed this grade his last two. The former Victorian keeps putting in and is a chance to bounce. AND BEYOND (2) comes out of the same race beaten 1.6L Peaks now and the mile won't bother. In the mix. YARRA MASTER (4) is also fourth up and rates well at best. Tumbles in weight and keep onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Kaliuwaa Falls.
