GOING: G(4)

BYRNE TRAILERS PTY LTD BENCHMARK 82 HANDICAP 1400m Track: GOOD 4 Clear (Max: 29) Rail: Out 6m 1400m-W/Post, True Remainder.
Offspring to take up the running at a moderate tempo. INVERTATIONAL (5) was only warming to his task late when resuming at Canberra last start. Comes in on the fresh side but has kept the legs ticking over with a handy Goulburn trial placing between runs. Unbeaten here and is a great chance to keep that record intact. MERC (4) got home nicely into fourth last start at Kembla Grange. Gets in well at the weights with the 2kg claimer engaged and is in the mix with a similar effort. BROADSIDE ARMOUR (8) never looked likely last start at Albury when always well back in a competitive race. Strikes an easier assignment this time and goes well over this track and trip. In the mix. OFFSPRING (6) didn't give a yelp first up in a tough race at Moruya. Shoulders a strong record second up and comes right into calculations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Invertational the one to beat.
