Bathurst   25 Apr 2025
 
GOING: G(4)

ELDERS EMMS MOONEY CLASS 1 & MAIDEN PLATE 1800m

Track: GOOD4   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

Solid tempo anticipated with Ilovenews leading the way. AMPLIFY (6) won well at Wyong at her third start then deep ended in the Adrian Knox at Randwick. Find this much easier and take beating. ILOVENEWS (15) was game at big odds when fifth at Hawkesbury at his fourth run this prep and could give a sight here. JUAN PABLO (7) brings a solid last start effort into this race and has to be respected. LUCKY STAR (5) and LA CHAPARRON (8) are among the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Amplify to win.
