GOING:

Derby Day November 2 Handicap 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 27)   Rail: True.  

Plenty of speed runners engaged, with Filthy Rich, Mi Mijo and Brut Star prominent. SUPREME GOAL (5) just battled over 1400m last time out and is probably looking for a mile. He was sharp enough to win his maiden before that very easily over 1100m and should race close to the pace from the pole position this time. He has 1.5kg less to carry and is worth another chance. KIEFFER (1) made up some late ground when finishing fifth here as favourite 2 weeks ago and will relish the extra furlong on offer. A good draw will help and he should be right in the finish this time. Follow your money. MI MIJO (10) made up a nice slice of ground late when fresh-up here a fortnight ago and is straight up to a mile. He is usually thereabouts and is good enough to figure in the top 3 this time. THE GIRL'S BOY (2) likes it here and has won 2 of his last 3 starts including his most recent run here 2 weeks ago when scoring by over a length. He tries the mile for the first time and is worth each-way consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Supreme Goal each way.
