GOING: G

Quayclean Handicap 1525m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 32)   Rail: +9m 1200m-W/Post; +5m Remainder. (Pent: 5.46)  

In a race without an obvious leader, either The Golden Fist or Running On Time can roll them along. SABAJ (4) arrived just in time fresh to make it 2/2. Clearly has her share of ability and will appreciate the rise in trip. Expect class to shine through and for him to be too strong for them late. THE GOLDEN FIST (6) made a stack of ground in the lane to score with a bit up his sleeve last start at Murray Bridge. Tougher this time but has more to offer. RIGHT OF VETO (12) made a mess of his rivals when shedding his maiden tag at Oakbank. Is drawn to take closer order this time and is down in the weights. Right in this. STRATUM PRIDE (8) hasn't tasted success for quite some time but has figures that stack right up. Not suited by a lack of speed on the quick back-up but is one to keep in mind. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sabaj the one to beat.
