GOING: G(4)

WOOPI NEWS COUNTRY BOOSTED BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: True.  

A keen contest with Seething Chuck and Griffinstown Girl leading from He's Godspeed. HE'S GODSPEED (2) went back early from his wide draw over this trip at Taree last time but hit the line strongly to finish fifth. Doesn't win out of turn but watch for him to be charging home again. SEETHING CHUCK (4) just missed last time when a neck away in second at Coffs Harbour after rattling home fresh. Peaking now and is a genuine contender. BEEARETEE (6) improved last start when just finding just one better. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role if he holds his form. QUEEN OF TAYRONA (3) was a good winner two back but failed to follow it up here last time. Keeping safe on best form. SUGGESTED PLAY: He's Godspeed to win.
