GOING: G

Global Turf BM66 Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD4   Clouds (Max: 18)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.44)  

Genuine tempo from Highlands leading Princess Toro. IMPENDING WAR (6) resumes here with a nice profile. He won his first two starts in the country impressively before being pitched up to a good 2yo race at Flemington, holding his ground behind Buccleuch who won the final of that series dominantly next time out. He lands in a good spot from the gate here and might just have a bit more upside than these. PRINCESS TORO (12) was in the market but struggled last time at Geelong. Her previous form was rock solid for this, she can bounce back. LETHAL THOUGHTS (1) needs another win but his past two haven't been bad and he should get a good run here. He's probably past it, but his best would go close. DIDN'T MISS MANY (8) struck tough conditions first up at Pakenham and can be forgiven. He'll be fitter anyway and his form last time in was solid for this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Impending War to win.
