SOMERSET REGIONAL COUNCIL BENCHMARK 55 Handicap 1500m Track: HEAVY 8 Rail: True. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Glengarry can work over from a wide draw to lead. ARIAT (7) was beaten a half-length at Toowoomba quickly back on track. Has her first go over 1500m but gives every signal it will suit. VORTEXIA (6) also bounced back beaten a whisker at Ipswich in stronger. That rates well but he has to push forward from a wide barrier today and that's the niggle. PAUJI POWER (3) has switched stables on a 39-day return. He was formerly with the sharp Matt Dale yard at Goulburn and has pieces of form good enough. Maps well and Stanley's booking suggests he's pleasing. CHANCE WITH WOLVES (2) will find this easier than the Sunshine Coast and should be around the mark. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Ariat.
