GOING: S(5)

GORDON'S GIN Class 2 Plate 1350m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: Out 7m Entire. (Pent: 5.5).  

He's Essential can lead the way. Even. ISLE ORNSAY (10) placed this track/grade/trip off back-to-back wins. She will carry just 55kg after the claim and get every chance to bounce back. MISS CHENERY (11) resumes for the Waller-barn. She didn't come up in stronger races last campaign. Her Sydney metro form was strong the previous and the early market suggests she's back on track. MILLWARD (3) missed a whisker here first up and is further improved. Maps well and is proven second-up. Deserves plenty of consideration. BRAVELY (1) wasn't beaten far at Doomben and is ready to show more. Has plenty up the sleeve but draws the rail and risks getting strung up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Isle Ornsay appeals most.
