GOING: H(8)

FARM SOURCE 1200m

Track: HEAVY 8     True  

Charm Manhattan and Forever Babe possess good early speed. FOREVER BABE (7) is a course-proven runner. Won a trial here last month so very ready to resume. Can score in this for sure. MISS EMERALD (11) runs for a new stable fresh up in this. Has won in this state before. Quinella and trifecta chance in this field. BRANCASTER BOMBER (5) resumes here. Both of his wins have come on the track and one of those wins came when fresh up. FRENCH ROSE (8) has been not too bad in her last two runs. Wide draw but can feature in this line up. POLLY PLUM (4) is a class dropper here. She can swim so wet ground is not an issue. Trifecta and first four chance in this at possible overs. SUGGESTED PLAY: Forever Babe and Miss Emerald are win wagers.
