GOING: S(7)

CAMPBELL INFRASTRUCTURE 1560m

Track: SOFT 7     Out 3m  

The race pace here looks quite okay and it will all come down to the footing on offer. I AM GROOT (1) won extra well fresh up. A repeat seems very likely indeed. ARROWETTE (5) draws well and is a quinella and trifecta must in this field. Handles most types of footing. ALATION (4) is a class riser but can cope. Drawn well again. CANDYCANE (6) course placed. Handles it dry and wet. Include everywhere. THE GREEN KEEPER (11) course placed. Wide gate. Not totally out of this. SUGGESTED PLAY: I Am Groot is a win wager.
