GOING: G(4)

Sportsbet Grassroots Gallop 1440m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: Out 12m Entire Circuit.  

Fast early pace with Starspangled Baby showing out, Tough race. BOLTSAVER (13) won two in a row to start the campaign and was sound in two subsequent runs before an even effort at Benalla latest. He's still lightly raced and can bounce back in a wide-open affair. PRIVATE JUMBO (9) was good fresh at Seymour before a messy race at Benalla. He should be ready to fire now and can get a good run. RUSSIAN METEOR (10) resumes. He's a handy type with good form around this distance and with a good ride from the draw can figure. HARMONIOUS SENORA (4) resumes. She'll get further but this trip suits fresh and Shinn booked is a good lead. She can get into the money. NEW YORK HURRICANE (1) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boltsaver on top.
