MCA POLYTRACK HANDICAP 1400m Track: SOFT 7 Rail: True. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting a strong gallop with Exceltrain and Kelvinater taking up the running over Little Silver. ON PATROL (9) just missed in a photo finish last start at Bunbury when flying home from last. His racing pattern is the niggle with him and he's drawn out again, though Parnham remains in the saddle and he boasts a strong third-up record. Can go one better this time around. LITTLE SILVER (6) was too good at Bunbury a fortnight ago when winning by 1L over this trip. He's won 2/5 third-up in the past and Faithfull was able to negate the wide draw last time out. Fitter again now and looks the main danger. KELVINATER (3) disappointed last start when back to 1200m here last week but had been in good form prior to that. Back out in trip may hold the key this time and a return to form is on the cards. PETROUCHKA (4) has been rarely sighted since her 3YO season, but that form still lingers in the background. She trialled nicely coming in and she has the class to feature in the finish. EXCELTRAIN (1) can give a bold sight with the 3kg claim up front. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with On Patrol to win.
