GOING: S(5)

CAMPBELL INFRASTRUCTURE 1230m

Track: SOFT6     Out 3m from WP to 1300m, Remainder Out 4m  

Expecting Rolling Stone to take up the running with Cadel and Who Rox The House close at hand. ROLLING STONE (1) was well supported in every start as a juvenile, and while not winning, he did run some big races in his initial prep. He resumed with a solid effort for fourth in his first start as a 3-year-old at Te Aroha just over 3 weeks ago, and he can take this out. WHO ROX THE HOUSE (6) was placed 3 times in 6 starts as a 3-year-old, and will be resuming from a spell that has done her the world of good. She is primed with a couple of trials under her belt, and despite a wide gate, she is still a solid each-way chance fresh up. SILKY SHUBA (7) ran on late for fourth here fresh up from a spell, and she has top 3 claims from a good draw this time. SUGAR SCHNAPPS (10) cops a wide gate for her debut but her trial form can't be ignored. Each way value. LADY IMPENDING (8) makes her debut from a handy gate, and her trial form says she will be ready to rumble. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rolling Stone will be hard to beat.
