GOING: G(4)

Ladbrokes Blackbook BM65 Handicap 1560m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 24)   Rail: Out 3m Entire. (Pent: 4.9).  

Plenty of pace with Brazen Breccia leading from Kefalonia. KEFALONIA (5) has a handy record around this circuit with two wins and five placings from 15 outings and gets the services of gun hoop Wiggins in the irons. Likely improver with strong winning prospects. BRAZEN BRECCIA (10) goes well over this track and trip with a win and three placings from six attempts. Will go forward and expected to be right in the finish. KELLERS SHELTER (9) won at a big price by a head two starts back over 1560m at this track. Worth keeping safe. JETSKI (2) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kefalonia to win.

The start before that from last on the turn 7th of 10 at Home Hill Bm60 on August 27 over 1460m, 2.5 len behind Baby Guinness with 59kg at $7. Better than that last effort and can make amends.

Most recently rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 11 at this track 0 - 55 on August 22 over 1300m, neck behind Lady Masquerade with 57.5kg at $5.50. The start before that didn't do much in the run home; second last of 8 at Bowen Hcp on August 17 over 1280m, on a slow track; 10 len behind Ocean Emperor carrying 57kg at $14. Made headway last time. One of the major hopes.

The start before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 11 at this track Cl1-Sw on September 5 over 1560m, long-neck behind Blue Ray with 56kg at $6. Rates highly and is a winning chance.
