MAHONEY GROUP ELECTRICAL BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1800m

Track: SOFT5   Rain (Max: 34)   Rail: True . (Pent: 5.76)  

Tycoon Charger or Celebrity to lead the small field. YABBY PUMP (3) fifth-up for this and gets a much better set-up today. Went back from the draw and failed to make an impression when ninth over 1500m at Rosehill in Midway grade. He's drawn well in a small field and this shapes as a better assignment than wat he contested last time. DIAMOND SHOW (1) snagged back from the outside gate and failed to get into the contest when twelfth over 2000m at Rosehill in Midway class. Well in with the claim in this easier contest. CELEBRITY (6) dominated a small field on debut when a comfortable winner over 1625m at Wyong. Scratchings make the wide draw much better now and he can play a leading role once again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Yabby Pump.
