GOING: G(4)

MRS MAC'S HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

Hot pace certain with Ginnivan, Cessation and Do I Feel Lucky keen to take up the running. ALL PLAY (3) pulled up with an issue following his only run last campaign and was given a break following that effort. He looks to be back on song from what we've seen at the trials recently however and the inside barrier is a big tick for him. Can land in a positive position and return on a winning note. KAY TEE WHY (6) won well as a $1.60 pop at Belmont last start when smashed in betting. His record here is just as good, being 2/2 at this track and trip. Fitter for that run and with Pike sticking, there's no reason why he can't repeat the dose. GINNIVAN (1) finished 1.3L off Kay Tee Why last start and does meet him better at the weights today after the claim of Cooper. His record here is a slight niggle, but he has good early speed and he's sure to give a bold sight third-up. SILVER EYE (4) disappointed last start after a big win fresh. They've tinkered with his gear again, so he can bounce back. TOO DARDY (9) looks better placed here today and can be in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: All Play can return a winner.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming second last in a small field at Belmont Park Jolly Beggar on August 30 over 1000m, slow going 4.5 len behind Hanchi with 57kg at $3.60. Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at Belmont Park Rtg 72+ on September 20 over 1000m, on a slow track; 1.3 len behind Kay Tee Why carrying 58.5kg at $6. Form ties in through Kay Tee Why and he meets that runner better at the weights today.
