GOING: G(3)

BOLAND PETROLEUM MOREE TOWN PLATE 950m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 17)   Rail: True.  

Abundant pace from Annual, Super Hot and Who Goes There vying for the lead with Bomarea on their backs. WHO GOES THERE (1) has won his past two at Tamworth over 1000m by big spaces and while he hasn't raced for almost two months this short trip suits off a break. Will be in this for a long way. BOMAREA (3) loves a short trip and if she finds the front she can take plenty of catching. Not up to the task at Eagle Farm second-up but fresh win has her right in the mix. SOOBOOCO (7) drops 5kg after running on nicely when second over this track and distance a month ago. A little more depth in this but weight drop is a big plus. Go well. JET EMPRESS (5) and DEEP ROUGE (2) are probably not winning hopes but could place. SUGGESTED PLAY: Who Goes There to win.
