Eagle Farm   23 Aug 2025
 
GOING: S(5)

XXXX Class 3 Plate 1600m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 24)   Rail: +7m Entire. (Pent: 5.85)  

Good tempo anticipated with Simply Amazing and Razors leading the way. Looks a wide open contest. Former Godolphin galloper RAZORS (5) bounced back to the winners' list when having his first run for the Bruce yard and looks to have transitioned in good order. Will need an ounce of luck from the carpark draw but can go right on with the job now. SIMPLY AMAZING (14) just missed the placings at Doomben last time out but had strung a hat-trick of wins together prior. Gets in well at the weights with the 2kg claim and may bounce right back against this line-up. MORE LOVE (13) has finished runner-up at the past three outings and looks to be building up to another victory. Has to be included. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 5,14,13.
