GOING: H(8)

Finns Fine Foods Class One Plate 1817m

Track: HEAVY   Clear (Max: 20)   Rail: Out 3m 1800m-1600m. Out 4m Remainder.  

Expecting Nextone to bounce to the lead from a low draw. GALLOPING GURU (2) was an eye-catcher when resuming last start at Warrnambool. Is sure to have come on with that run under the belt and will appreciate the rise in trip. Draws to get a soft run and is the one to beat. MAIDEN FLIGHT (7) progressed nicely second-up when just missing the placings in town. Easier this time and should be nearing her peak. Bold showing anticipated. DESIGNS OF EIGHT (6) was a barnstorming maiden winner last start at Hamilton. Tougher this time but has scope for improvement. Don't underestimate. Last-start winner WYUNA STAR (12) also holds appeal and is worth keeping onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Galloping Guru to win.
