LIFE MEMBER ROBERT FREYER BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1400m

Track: SOFT 7   Clear (Max: 11)   +5m 800m-400m, +3m Remainder Cutaway Applies  

Strong early tempo with New Jersey driving forward from an outside gate. TIZSO FAB (6) handy gelding due for a change of luck. Just over three weeks between runs in the soft 7 going when a fading seventh over 1400m at Echuca o June 13. Fitter now and go on his strong second two back when assessing his chances. BONVALANTE (7) surprised at big odds on resumption when he charged late from well back to score a commanding 1.2 len victory over 1200m at Wagga on June 17. This is no tougher and only rises slightly in weight. COMANCHE NORTH (3) won his only attempt at this distance and is building in fitness. AMEN BROTHER (8) can be in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 6,7,3,8.
