GOING: GS

ALLAN ROBERTSON CHAMPIONSHIP 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 23)    

Plenty of speed runners engaged, with Glastonbury, Comic Relief and Direct Hit prominent. ONE FINE WINTER (5) scored an easy win in a strong field last start when sent out as the favourite. The manner in which she quickened away from the field that day was eye-catching. Racing well and looks hard to beat again. DIRECT HIT (10) is unbeaten from three starts to date. She clearly has class about her and she can remain unbeaten. COMIC RELIEF (4) is unbeaten from two starts to date. She returns from a spell during which time she would have strengthened up. If seeing out the 1200m she should finish in the placings. ELEGANTRIX (7) going well lately scoring two wins with one placing from four runs this prep including a last start win at this track, Each-way chance.
