CETNAJ COUNTRY MAGIC MERV MERCER SHOWCASE MILE - CLASS 2 HCP 1600m Track: Soft 6 Rain (Max: 18) Rail: True. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Off the low draw Yalla should lead at a genuine tempo. Freewheeling mare YALLA (4) led for the judge last start in a Class 4 over 1800m at the Gold Coast but was overwhelmed late in the piece. Big drop in grade today and the mile looks a better fit. Will prove very tough to catch. SECRET KEEPER (14) improved significantly last time out when second-up from a break, racing on the speed then battling on well for a close fourth over 1725m at Grafton. Should be cherry ripe now, with a deteriorating surface the only query. POINT OUT (2) hasn't been far away at his last couple, both over this distance in BM66 contests. Good each-way hope in a similar assignment this afternoon. TWO AYE (7) is a long way from home. Handy mare on her day and she looks well in with 55kgs. DUPONT (11) has been about the mark of late and although up in class looks a decent chance at the weights. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen to be with Yalla.
