JENNIAN HOMES HANDICAP 1200m Track: SOFT 5 True |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A hot tempo is expected with plenty of speed engaged. SINDEE (4) needed her fresh run in stakes company here last month, and then found the right level when scoring off a wide gate at Woodville just over 2 weeks ago. She has another 2kg to carry, but she is more than capable of repeating the dose. BOLD BELLE (1) lost her jockey in the same race as the second pick, and was building her form in stakes company before that run. She will be at her peak fitness now, and she is due a change of luck. Each way. IMA BRAZEN ONE (3) is still on the up with her fitness, and won't be far away. LEGALLY BINDING (6) is likely to race on the pace from his good draw, and if he can settle, then he can figure right in the finish. Each way value. SINBIN (7) resumes from a spell, and with the advantage of the pole position, she will be ready to run a big race fresh. Follow the money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sindee can win this.
