GOING: H(9)

Two Tarts Catering BM56 Handicap 2100m

Track: HEAVY 9   Clouds (Max: 14)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 6.15)  

Timeonlees should lead and dictate terms. TIMEONLEES (8) is fitter for two runs back and placed at both. Steps up in journey and really hit form over this sort of journey last time in. Looks ready to win and gets her chance. TRIORA (10) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 4 lengths, over 2000m at Warrnambool. Blinkers added and looks a terrific chance to return to form. VERIFIER (6) has been kept fresh since finishing sixth at Seymour over 1600m a month ago. Kept ticking over with a recent trial win at Ballarat Synthetic. Rates well on best form and a bold showing is expected. HARD TO GO WRONG (3) went back early from his wide draw over 1717m at Sale last time but hit the line strongly to finish fifth. Certain to be winding up strongly. LUCKYHELEFT (2) was runner-up in a similar race last time and should be winding up late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Timeonlees gets chance.
