TAB HANDICAP 2200m Track: SOFT 6 Rain (Max: 10) Rail: True. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Fagin, Hovland and Magicon to roll forward and set up a solid tempo. A good contest. HOVLAND (8) won big over 1800m at Hawkesbury as expected, and the money came again at Canterbury following, and he had a luckless run beaten just 1.2L. The step up in trip won't be an issue, but the outside barrier needs managing. The gun hoop is aboard today, assisting in that regard. The blinkers come off and with average luck he'll be hard to hold out. RISE TO IT (2) is up to this and has gone around in tougher company his last two. Maps well and the 2kg claim is handy. Hard fit and gets his chance in this line-up. NAVAL COMMISSION (1) is busting to win and is back in grade with Berry aboard, replacing the apprentice. He deserves another chance. ELLE HUDSON (12) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start running sixth at Canterbury. Rates as a place chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Hovland.
