GOING: G

Family Day 12 July Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 28)   Rail: True.  

Pace a scorcher, headed by Kissing Supido, Wild Beau and Dancer For Money, closely followed by Patriotic King and Tugela Falls. Another tough race on a competitive card. SUPER FAMOUS (4) offers plenty of appeal after only narrowing missing at last sighting here. Dropping back a peg in grade today and looks nicely weighted, considering. Takes beating. TELLEZ (6) debuts for his new trainer and brings a handy set of ratings with him. Must be considered. KISSING SUPIDO (2) comes through the same race as the top pick and is well and truly in consideration third-up. WILD BEAU (5) usually comes back ready to fire and is expected to feature when the whips are cracking. TUGELA FALLS (7) is in form and can't be overlooked in a competitive assignment. SUGGESTED PLAY: Super Famous looks poised for another win stepping up to his pet distance.
