GOING: G

Bollards Lagoon Pastoral Co Benchmark 62 Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 14)   Rail: True.  

Cracking pace early with My Boy Jett, Important Product and Big Option leading the charge. MY BOY JETT (1) bounced back sharply off a poor one at Hawker when shooting for the hat-trick, to return to the winner's circle here last start. Is unbeaten at this venue and is well-placed to keep his record intact. LUNAR SOLAR (4) knuckled down gamely in the lane to get the verdict here last start. Drops back 100m but has performed well over this journey on many occasions. Can give this a mighty shake. CLASSY BANNER (3) finished 0.7L away from Lunar Solar here last start. Meets her better at the weights but is drawn sticky. Big chance to salute with a smart ride. RICHED (7) fell a neck shy of making it back-to-back wins here last start. Ticking along nicely and only needs to hold his form to be featuring again. IMPORTANT PRODUCT (6) doesn't win out of turn but holds claims on best efforts. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: My Boy Jett gets the nod.
