Canterbury   18 Sep 2024
 
GOING: G(4)

TAB HANDICAP 1580m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 24)   Rail: Out 8m Entire. (Pent: 4.96).  

Slick tempo assured from Glounthaune and Sweysive leading the charge. The beautifully bred JUST GLAMOUROUS (9) returned from a 19-month break with a gutsy win at Newcastle then went close to repeating the dose over 1300m at Warwick Farm last start. Keen to see her out to the mile as mum won the Flight Stks and Thousand Guineas. Will roll along and take some catching on the limit. LITTLE JEANIE (6) did her best work late to get up for third when fresh from a spell over 1300m at Warwick Farm a fortnight back. Peak rating last prep was over this distance. Serious threat. COLOUR SERGEANT (2) has struggled in two runs since coming back from Melbourne, both over the Randwick mile. Could be a surprise packet back at the midweekers. SWEYSIVE (4) relished the step up in distance last time when runner-up over 1550m here. Very fit now and can win with the help of an inside draw. The lightly raced SEAFALL (8) was just fair when resuming but is more at home over this trip so can improve sharply. SUGGESTED PLAY: Just Glamourous to win.
