GOING: AW

CORPSURE INSURANCE BROKING BENCHMARK 62 Handicap 1050m

Track: AW     Rail: True.  

Hidden Melody and Ready To Torque should lock horns early at a strong gallop. HIDDEN MELODY (6) has been runner-up in all of her 3 starts this prep including her first run on a ploy track here 4 days ago when beaten by a short-head as favourite. She is up slightly in grade but drops 3.5kg in weight and can go one better and record a deserving win. READY TO TORQUE (4) is a lightly tried 5-year-old mare who should reward her connections' patience this season and has already started to after scoring by a narrow margin on this track 4 weeks ago, leading all of the way. She carried half-a-kilo less this time so is well placed to repeat the dose. I AM VOODOO (1) has a fantastic record on this track and is usually competitive at this level. He lumped a big weight to score in lesser company here 4 days ago and is quite capable of making it 2 wins on the bounce within a week. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ready To Torque each-way.
