GC RACING INDUSTRY AWARDS AUGUST 21 BENCHMARK 55 Handicap 1100m Track: AW Rail: True. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Palatial Prince. RYLOV (2) also finds easier and was threatening a win. Lost a plate on the turf here last time and he will sit forward today from a better gate. Has decent claims. MOET AT MIDNIGHT (16) is also going well enough to feature but needs a good ride from the awkward barrier. ON THE TARGET (17) is an improver in a strong metro barn. Uses the rail and just missed on the turf here first-up when expected to need it. KELANOA (4) has been out of the money of late including last time out when seventh over 1200m at Ipswich three-and-a-half weeks ago. Look for an improved run here. KING KRYPTOS (5) is resuming from a spell. Coming along well including a recent trial win at Doomben and worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Rylov.
