GOING: S(6)

BENDIGO COMMUNITY BANK F&M MAIDEN PLATE 1100m

Track: Soft 6   Clouds (Max: 14)   Rail: +3m 1100m-W/Post; True Remainder.  

Tricky one to map with a number of first starters but over this trip there is good speed anticipated. Tough contest with some handy debutants stepping out. MISS JUDAS (5) has race experience and fitness on her side from the good draw. Indicated she is ready to shed her maiden tag after closing off well when third over 1000m at Hawkesbury. Will hold a forward position and prove hard to get past. NAZWAH (10) well-bred two-year-old filly by Capitalist from Najoom on debut for the Peter Snowden camp. Half sister to the classy Charm Stone and Najmaty. Gets her chance from the inside gate with the three good trials. PROFILE (12) Frosted filly from a Commands mare on debut for the James Cummings stable. Fitted with the two trials and must be kept safe despite drawing out. IN LIMBO (9) improving with racing and third up for this with the winkers going on. Don't dismiss. SUGGESTED PLAY: Race experience to get Miss Judas over the line.
