GOING: S(6)

MICHAEL KELLY BM70 Handicap 1400m

Track: Soft 6     Rail: +2m 600m-300m; True Remainder. (Pent: 5.72)  

I Promise You should find the front with Too Hard To Refuse and Basil's Bow on her heels. EXECUTIVE STRESS (1) has strung three wins together on the bounce including going two from two over this course and distance. Again gets the benefit of Orr's 2kg claim and it's hard to knock winning form. Looks the hardest to toss. OUR ORATOR (10) resumes here but the form he showed before the spell was good enough for a race like this. Can run a race while fresh. CAPE CRUSADER (8) has placed two of three over this seven-furlong journey and is usually thereabouts. Top-three aspirations. Former Victorian galloper LET FLY (4) saves her best form for this distance range with three wins and two placings from just six attempts. Can run a big race for the new stable. SUGGESTED PLAY: Executive Stress to continue the picket fence.
