GOING: G(4)

GT Print Australia QTIS Three-Years-Old Maiden Handicap 1000m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 27)   Rail: +6m Entire. (Pent: 6.46)  

Good early pressure anticipated with a large representation of unraced runners. Plenty of question marks surround POINT VEGA (5) on debut but she is worth the gamble. Has trialled once, scoring by 7.2 lengths on the inner track here back in July, and has not been produced since. Clearly very smart but the betting on race day will tell the tale. GEITZ (14) was in the money for the fourth time in her career recently, catching the eye in the closing stages of an 1100m Gatton maiden. Very fit after two runs back and has placed two of three at 1000m. Plenty to like about her chances. HELLO PUNTERS (8) last raced seven weeks ago when in the money over 800m at Kilcoy. Will go fast and give backers a sight. TROFEO (6) on debut is worth monitoring closely as the Vandyke yard has a reputation with the newcomers. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Point Vega unless she is rejected by the market.
