WWW.NZBSTANDARDBRED.CO.NZ LIGHTNING LAP MS PACE 1177m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 19)    

LUKE ATTACK (4) turned in an out-of-character effort last time out when 11 metres away in sixth over 2130m at Gloucester Park. Form prior to that had been solid. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field and can make amends. IWILL NEVER KNOW (3) was responsible for a better effort last time out when third over 1177m at this track. Should run a big race. SIMPLYTHEBEST (1) has the perfect inside draw and is the best of the rest after finishing sixth first-up over 2100m at Bunbury last time out. SUNPATRA (7) will enjoy a class drop from the city having won the last time he raced here.
