GOING: S

Darren Grech Myeloma Australia Handicap 1000m

Track: Soft 6   Clear (Max: 15)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Strong tempo with Boonie and Rattle And Bang leading from Dreamzel and Martial Music. STOLI BOLLI (7) resumes. He only had one run last time in and was well beaten but it was in a rich race at Sunshine Coast won by subsequent G1 winner Private Harry. Some of his prior three-year-old form including a win in very fast time here in September last year is strong. He's been jumping out well and gets Shinn on. DEEPFLOAT DIVA (12) is racing in fine form and building a handy CV. Just missed at Morphettville Parks last time and gets Zahra on tracking the speed from a low draw. HARRY GOT STYLES (1) is racing well at this trip, building a strong 1000m record. Back in class for this and will be hard to hold out. DON'T HOPE DO (9) resumes. The draw is a bit awkward but he's got plenty of ability. Watch the market. DREAMZEL (5) maps well and can measure up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stoli Bolli to win.
