GOING: S(5)

TOYOTA FORKLIFTS HANDICAP 1800m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 18)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 5.43)  

Genuine tempo from Aberlour leading Aroha Stone. FEDERER (3) lightly raced staying gelding who settled back in the field before looming down the outside when a respectable fourth against some of these over this trip at Rosehill. Near his top now and gets a much better set-up with a senior rider booked. Ready to win. PIGGYBACK (2) looked to be trucking heading into the straight before tightened between runners at vital stages when an unlucky third over 1800m at Rosehill. Braith Nock sticks and the wide gate can help her cause. MISTERKIPCHOGE (4) rewarded for his consistency last start when he stalked the speed for a narrow win over the 1800m at Rosehill. Will go back from the draw and stays in the mix. AROHA STONE (10) massive jump in class and can take a hand in the finish on the limit weight. SUGGESTED PLAY: Federer to ace his rivals.
