MARSHALL BATTERIES OPEN HANDICAP 1400m

Track: GOOD     Out 9m to the 1000m  

The race pace looks not to bad at all here in this Open Class event over 1400m. PERFECT SCENARIO (1) he won very well fresh up. Inside gate here. Triple track winner. Dual winner second up. Sure to give a sight once again as he has no negatives in this regarding a dry or wet track. EPEE BEEL (5) is a course proven runner. Quinella and trifecta chance here for sure. TIMES TICKING (2) is a dual winner fresh up. Triple track winner. Trial winner. Sure to have some backing. MISS LAYLA (6) is a multiple class riser resuming. Course proven. Placed in two of three fresh up runs. Senior rider atop. Plenty of positives for punters with this mare. DAZZLING MISS (3) she too is a multiple class dropper fresh up. Twice trialled. Well in here at 54.5kg. Tote will tell you. SUGGESTED PLAY: Perfect Scenario is a win wager.
