GOING: H(9)

THE GIBSON Class 6 Plate 1400m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: Out 9m Entire. (Pent: 5.95).  

He's Heaven can run them along. MILITARY GAMBLER (6) is hard-fit and tumbles in grade off the 3.8L defeat in the Listed Eye Liner Stakes. He's suited under the race conditions and Orman is a key jockey switch. Maps for a soft run and gets his chance. WEIGALL TIGER (8) peaks and was coming along well before being outgraded at Group 3 level. He showed plenty early doors and is a threat. WITHOUT REVENGE (5) needed the first-up outing and is proven second-up. He's 2x Stakes placed and can't be ruled out. BEAN FOGGY (2) has been knocking on the door and will be around the mark. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Military Gambler.
