GOING: S(5)

Mitavite BM55 Handicap 1000m Track: SOFT 5 Rain (Max: 26) Rail: Out 6m 1000m-W/Post; Out 1.5m Remainder. (Pent: 5.38).
Pressure from word go with Sensationabull and Divine Sienna showing the way from Hit Snooze. Wide open on paper. DIVINE SIENNA (12) races forward and deserved the Maiden win at Mackay heavily bet and then just a run at Rockhampton in stronger grade. This suits better and tipping she can bounce back at an each-way price. COLD POWER (1) won this grade here making good improvement. Also races forward and keeps the handy 3kg claim. Peaks and a repeat isn't out of the question. HIT SNOOZE (4) has been plain her last two but the form prior here would give her a chance. The in-form Butler goes aboard for the apprentice and a bounce can't be ruled out. DICKIN MEDAL (7) and WHEY MISCHIEF (8) both resume and are capable of making their presence felt. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Divine Sienna each way.
