TABTOUCH SUPPORTS GERALDTON RACING HANDICAP 1618m

Track: Good 3   Clouds (Max: 27)   Rail: +4m Entire.  

Be My Belle and Noble Touch look to take it up. BOUSSAC (2) finished fifth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by a head after being prominent at the turn here. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BE MY BELLE (6) showed good speed and fought on for second here last time. Has been in sound form this prep with a win and two minor placings from four outings. Shapes as one to consider. NOBLE TOUCH (7) registered her first win last start here. Re-unites with Faithfull who was on board last start. Tougher assignment this time but is one of the main contenders. DEEP DISCRETION (4) rocketed home into second here last time after turning over 6L off the leader. Will get back again but will appreciate the rise in trip and can finish over the top of them. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boussac to win again.
