GOING: G(4)

BARNICOTT PLUMBING HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.75)  

Genuine tempo from Science Degree leading Ultimate Paradise. THATSTHEWAYILIKEIT (8) disappointed last start after a good start to her campaign, beaten 3.3L. Fiore now hops in the saddle in a good push for her chances and the wide draw doesn't hurt as she tends to get back in her races anyway. Happy to overlook one poor run and expect her to get back to her best. SCIENCE DEGREE (1) was only caught late last start when beaten That'sthewayilikeit and suspect similar tactics will be adopted here. He flew across from out wide to lead with the 4kg claim coming in hand. Should be right in the finish once again. DREAM BROOK (4) needs a touch of luck from out wide but has been racing in good order in recent efforts. Faithfull has a strong record on board the mare and reunites today. Should make her presence felt if things go her way. BRONZE ROCKET (6) disappointed last start up in trip but was very good here fresh. Can return to form. CLASSIC CODE (7) has claims on the back of a strong win last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with That'sthewayilikeit.
