GOING: G(4)

GLENROY CHAFF HANDICAP 1000m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: +11m Entire.  

Genuine tempo from Outlaw Music leading Magnique. DE GRANDHOMME (3) was good in his only trial coming into this and showed enough in his debut campaign to suggest he has ability. Pike rides first-up and the Blinkers go on for his return. Drawn to get his chance and can land the knockout blow. MAGNIQUE (7) is another on resumption today with Lucy Fiore in the saddle. She won her only trial coming into this and was very close to a maiden win in her debut campaign. Can put her best foot forward on resumption. MAGNACHINE (6) has trialled well coming into this and she should get her chance from an inside barrier. ANABALLISTIC (9) is resuming after a winning trial at Belmont Park. Respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: De Grandhomme can resume on a winning note.

Most recently won by a nose at Albany Mdn April 4 over 1000m on a rain affected track defeating Lady Coco carrying 58kg at $8.

Fitter again but this might be too rich.
