GOING: S(5)

RIVERINA CO-OP BENCHMARK 50 HANDICAP 1675m

Track: SOFT 5     Rail: True.  

A solid tempo on the cards with Dark Legacy leading the way. DARK LEGACY (2) was quickly back on track narrowly beaten 1.2L at Wodonga. Dropping back to the 1675m shouldn't prove an issue and she maps well. Peaks now and has the figures to be winning. BRAVO A GO GO (4) resumed with a solid effort at Leeton. She led and won a Maiden easily here before the break over this distance. Fitter and an inside gate and 3kg claim brings her right into it. DIAMOND CARAT (3) made good improvement winning a 58 comfortably at Leeton. She'd be a hope holding that form. DEBOUT BELLE (5) has a wide gate but comes back to more suitable grade. Keeps the small claim and can get some of the money with average luck. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Dark Legacy.
