GOING: G(4)

Rock trade industries RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: Out 0.5m 700m-300m; True Remainder.  

Strong pace with Clearly George booting up from the rails draw while Sock'emsid works forward. ROMAN HEIR (5) was a touch plain last time out but go on the close-up second the run prior when resuming. Strips fitter third-up from the spell and draws to get a cosy run from gate three. Can return to form against this lot. VULTURE STREET (9) has been in the mix in both starts this preparation and looks the galloper in this field with the most upside. The extra furlong should suit and finds a nice race to play a role. JIMMY NEUTRON (4) has a win and a second from four starts over this course and distance and rarely puts in a poor effort. Top-three commodity. DANTE ALIGHIERI (8) is having his first run for the new stable and any market confidence must be noted. WHISTLIN' RULER (13) best of the rest in a race with only a handful of chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Roman Heir to win.
