GOING: S(6)

NOTRE DAME COLLEGE Class 1 Plate - Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: Soft 7   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 6.69)  

Cracking tempo looks assured with many of these capable of pushing on early. AIR WE GO (1) didn't measure up at Listed level before the spell but will find this assignment much more to his liking. Looks well placed following a few key scratchings and should take some beating on his home track. NIRVANA THE STORM (5) comes here off a freshen (44 days) having won narrowly at Beaudesert last start. Can measure up off the back of that. AQUATIER (12) was only narrowly edged out last start and only looks to have to repeat that level of performance to be right in the finish again. BANK BOOK (13) the best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Air We Go.
