GOING: S(5)

BARRIER REEF POOLS Fillies & Mares RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: +8m Entire.  

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Miss Helmut. HI JULES (1) has a handy record at this venue with a win and three placings from seven attempts and will strip fitter second-up from the break. Gets 2kg weight relief from the favourable draw and should give backers a sight. Former Waller galloper KIRRAGIRL (4) is having her first run for the Bruce barn but has revved up for this with a recent trial placing and will find this easier than what she faced when last in work. Can run a big race while fresh. FULLY SUBSCRIBED (7) got the maiden out of the way at the latest effort and will have derived a stack of confidence from that breakthrough victory. May go right on with the job now. INSPIRED DREAM (3) has a win and a placing from three starts over this course and distance and is another to get some weight off. In the mix on best form. RESOLUTE LADY (8) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 1,4,7,3.
