GOING: G(4)

TOYOTA FORKLIFTS FRANK PACKER PLATE 2000m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: +7m 1000m-W/Post, +5m Remainder. (Pent: 5.19)  

Agent Zero, Coulter and C'mon Flyer to roll forward and set up a solid tempo. MATIAS (1) indicated a win was imminent at his second run back with a closing third over 1600m here in the G3 Carbine. Meets them better at the set weights here and ticks a few boxes from the low draw. Hard to stop. OLYMPIAN (4) was thrown in the deep end when raced without luck to finish a slashing fourth in the Carbine. Bred to run the trip and worth noting Craig Williams sticks. Sure to be thereabouts. PICTOR (7) three weeks between runs when he savaged the line to finish a close-up fifth in the Carbine. Look to see him race a touch closer from the inside draw and not without top-four prospects. EUREKA REBEL (3) closed strongly at the massive odds with a surprise second over 2000m in the G2 Tulloch Stakes at Rosehill. Appears to have further upside at the good each way price. PROVIDENCE (2) fitter now and stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Matias looks hard to stop at the set weights.
