GOING: S(5)

O'BRIENS PLUMBING COUNTRY BOOSTED BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1425m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: True.  

Genuine tempo with Zoucat and Caravanserai up front. OLINGTON LANE (3) talented gelding who failed to remain unbeaten at his third start when struggling in the heavy going to run fourth over 1300m at Kembla Grange in BVM64 grade. This looks more to his liking on the firmer surface. MELODIA PERFECTA (11) proved too strong two runs ago at Queanbeyan. Couldn't follow that up from a wide gate with a fading seventh over 1405m at the Sapphire Coast. Sticky gate again in a slightly easier contest, Each way. SURE INTENTIONS (7) frustrating gelding who comes back to his right trip today. Never comfortable on the synthetic track when sixth over 1750m at Canberra Acton. Capable of featuring prominently from the inside draw. SPIRITUAL STAR (5) tough Maiden win at start six over 1405m at the Sapphire Coast from a wide barrier. Today is no easier and place claims look best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Olington Lane can put these away.
