GOING: S

Happy Retirement Imperatriz Maiden Plate 1300m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.78).  

Plenty of pace evident with Hypeman and Revolution Rising leading the way from Steel Impact and Djawara. HYPEMAN (2) resumes having run three times in his debut campaign. On debut he was third to the handy Mantu and there was very good form through his next two starts as well. Resumes off a trial win at Caulfield Heath and draws well. Should go close. STEEL IMPACT (12) was close up in a very messy finish at Caulfield Heath last time out and is fresh for this. The run at this track prior was good. Chance. DJAWARA (5) resumed over 1200m at Mornington and ran well for third, beaten under a length. Fitter for that, she'll likely get back from the wide gate but can be finishing strongly. LUCKY DUCK (9) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Hypeman.
