GOING: G

Corio Waste Management BM56 Handicap 2108m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 4m 850m - WP, True Remainder. (Pent: 5.33)  

Solid tempo with Nicoffhome going forward from the good draw. DANZAGRUNT (4) strode forward early from his wide draw to settle just off the lead last start then lifted to score by a nose at Tatura over 1980m. Going well and should give a bold sight again. SHE FLYS (16) has not far away recently. Found the line strongly last time when third over 1600m at Swan Hill. Ready to get over more ground now and looms as a major player. NICOFFHOME (5) was never a factor last start but jumped straight from a nice maiden win into 62 grade, so this is much more suitable. DSCHINGIS PRESTIGE (2) is a horse who raced well in Saturday city grade in past preparations and while the first-up run was only fair, he'll be better for it, gets to a more suitable trip and has drawn beautifully. SUGGESTED PLAY: Danzagrunt each way
