GOING: S(5)

Carbine Club 3YO Winter Classic 1390m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 12)   Rail: +3m Entire. (Pent: 4.64)  

Only a small field with Taroona likely to find a comfortable lead. Hard to go past DAYTONA DIVA (3) who returned from a spell with an impressive win and beat many of these in the process. Fitter and meets them all better at the weights with the claim. Looks hard to hold out again. TAROONA (5) is a pace influence and looks hard to run down. Fourth behind Daytona Diva two back then led throughout to win a Class 4 latest. On the quick back-up but is a speedy filly expected to take catching. THE REAL MAN (2) tracked the pace and boxed on well but was no match for Daytona Diva latest. Meets winner worse at weight but honest and expected to be in the mix. ZAMBEZI BLONDE (1) is fitter and is hard to beat on best figures. SH' BOURNE ANGEL (6) will also improve with the run under the belt. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Daytona Diva.
