GOING: G

Stables at Spreyton Class 1 Hcp 1150m

Track: Synthetic     Rail: True.  

Fast pace assured with Houlihan, Just Plain Nuts and Gladding leading the charge. HOULIHAN (4) was back on track fresh and is worth following up. Failed to finish when well in the market on debut then spelled before returning with a strong win here latest. Has upside and can go on with it. GLADDING (1) pushed forward when resuming last time and boxed on to finish 1.1 lengths away in third over 1009m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat. BRAVE JET (5) is a former Victorian having first run this area. Best figures measure up so watch the market closely. FRENCH SOUL (3) was a winner two back then skipped a grade and was safely held before another break. Fitter for two trials and could well present a better horse this time in, JUST PLAIN NUTS (2) has won fresh so worth keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Houlihan
