GOING: S(7)

SELECT EVENTS BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1300m

Track: SOFT 7   Rain (Max: 10)   Rail: Out 3m Entire. (Pent: 5.8).  

Speed from Mellencamp and Turnaway lands handy. Senshi may have to press forward too. TURNAWAY (3) was two months between runs when a solid third over this course recently. Held ground well and will be fitter for it. If he can lift off that he'll be hard to beat. SENSHI (1) is down in grade after three runs at Newcastle. Had his chance last time but it was a heavy 10. Entitled to another chance. SMART SHOT (11) has the blinkers on now after two placings at Quirindi and Moree this time in. Draws well and could measure up. MASTER OF REWARDS (9) is a top-three prospect on best form with FEIRME PRINCE (5) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Turnaway each-way. Save on Senshi.
