GOING: G(3)

TAB BIRDSVILLE CUP OPEN Handicap 1600m Track: GOOD Rail: True.
Loads of early pressure, primarily from Le Force and Neodium. NEODIUM (6) brings strong form up from Adelaide and has won 3/5 third-up. He has won this course/distance and has the early tow to skip over from an outside gate. he rates to win if that's achieved economically. TRUMPSTA (7) is also Adelaide-trained and rates similarly. Uses the rail and will carry just 55kg with the claim. He's going to prove hard to peg back. LUCKY EXCHANGE (8) brings Toowoomba form and that also stacks up. Draws wide and is going to give away a start. That's the niggle. I AM GOOD AT THIS (12) was a big Open winner at Aramac over 1400m. He went close at Grafton over this distance prior and he deserves plenty of consideration as well. ELLA TE AMA (5) is up to this at best and deserves to be kept safe at a juicy price. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Neodium in a good contest.
