GOING: N

PLAY SOCCER 6, 10 AND 13 MR 90 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: AW      

Strong tempo assured with Play Act, Riverstone and Coastal Path rolling to the front. Big contingent from the Smith yard here and they can fight out the finish. NELSON BAY (3) put the writing on the wall last time when having first try this course and was just edged out. Drawn for a good run with cover and can prove too strong this time. Stablemate EYJAFJALLAJOKULL (5) looks the biggest danger. Placed three of last four. Strong record this course and distance and looks a strong winning hope. ANDY COOGLE (10) ran on well to score last time at first try this course and distance. Can make it two from two here. COASTAL PATH (11) wound up strongly to place last time and should enjoy a nice run from the inside stall. Very honest record here at the trip.
