GOING: S(5)

Miranda Park 4YO+ Maiden Plate 1203m

Track: Soft 5   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 1m Entire Circuit.  

Pace looks to be genuine with Rock Glory and Lawn Bowler matching motors in advance of Creditor and Ponte Arcobaleno. Tricky one, and with the exposed form looking a touch thin, GOTTALUVSPORT (9) goes on top. She's a mare by Impending on debut for the Matt Laurie yard who has won a jump out leading in. She draws for every chance and the bar doesn't look set overly high for one from a sharp yard. PONTE ARCOBALENO (5) was disappointing at Wodonga last time over 1400m having been consistent prior. Back in trip here should suit but he will need luck from the gate. OCEANELLA (10) resumes. She showed some ability last time in with a few minor placings in handy maidens. She too draws to get a fair way back which is the knock. WETLAND (15) has only raced twice to date and could be an improver now. BRAZEN FLING (7) is third up off two nice runs this time in and has claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gottaluvsport to win.
