GOING: S(6)

Vale Ben McGuiness Handicap 1200m Track: SOFT 6 Rain (Max: 11) Rail: True Entire Circuit.
Strong early pace from Cadboll and Magice pushing forward, along with Burton Street from out wide. MAGICE (12) comes over from New Zealand with a nice profile. He's been in the top three at all three starts to date, winning one, and was good in a handy enough 2yo race at Ruakaka before a spell. Watch the betting. LA PETITE ANGELE (4) was okay fresh off a long spell at Seymour and should be much better for it. Look for sharp improvement. NASRAAWY (2) doesn't win out of turn but has been good at his past two when finishing third. Like him at 1200m from the low draw. GUERRERA (10) has been fair in two runs back but could be an improver now. MEG'S MAGIC (15) resumes and has claims on best form. SUGGESTED PLAY: Magice on top.
