GOING: H(9)

TERMINATE PEST CONTROL WAGGA SHOWCASE BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: Heavy 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: +5m 1400m-W/Post; True Remainder.  

Reasonable tempo with Sir Sublime probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. REGION TIME (3) backed up a solid Moruya placing with a strong Albury win over 1500m. Is as tough as old boots and should prove hard to hold out again. MISSY SPIKE (13) has been around the mark without saluting. Shoulders a strong record here but is sure to be giving them another big sight from the wide alley. SUPER SUNNY SEEYA (9) has been mixing his form but his best efforts measure up. Rock-hard fit now and draws well. Win won't shock. FIRE YOUR GUNS (11) is yet to threaten this campaign but has been closing off nicely late. Gets a key booking in McDougall and should relish the rise in trip. Don't take lightly. MISS BARILOCHE (4) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Region Time to win again.
