GATTON CUP CALCUTTA - GATTON JUBILEE GOLF CLUB FRIDAY 28TH JUNE BENCHMARK 62 Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: Out 0.5m from 900m-600m. Out Out 1.5m from 600m-250m.  

Mr Encore can run them along. ZOUPERB (8) resumes and has been saved from Doomben yesterday for this. Went well at Eagle Farm when last seen and gets in well with the 3kg claim. She's trialled well and should take beating. MR ENCORE (6) will use the rail and is suited back to this grade. He's good enough and is a serious player. FLYING BIRDS (1) was back in the winner's circle taking out a 60 at Gatton. A dry track shouldn't bother and the in-form Huxtable rides. A repeat isn't out of the question. SMILING ZAC (7) went back-to-back here and keeps improving. Has a low gate and 2kg claim and can't be ruled out. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Zouperb.
