Billy "The Butcher" Malady Maiden Plate 1400m Track: SOFT 7 Clouds (Max: 15) Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.96). |

---|---|---|---|---|
Born To Shine and Montecristo possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. MONTECRISTO (4) resumes having run third on debut at Hamilton when well supported. Better for that experience and the 1400m should suit him better. Expect he's wound up for the home carnival run. BORN TO SHINE (13) has run second at her past two outings, beaten narrowly at Kyneton as an odds-on favourite last time. Poised to break through. WICHITALL (10) was sound at Terang first up and should be better suited over this trip. TI TREE LAD (9) should find this easier than first up at Caulfield Heath. SUGGESTED PLAY: Montecristo to win.
