GOING: G(4)

EVERY WA RACE MEETING LIVE AND FREE ON 7PLUS HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 12m Entire. (Pent: 6.7).  

Plenty of early pace to be established by Made In Mexico and Amelia's Belief, with Miss Esprit close at hand. MADE IN MEXICO (4) may not have handled the heavy going last start at Pinjarra following a strong run at Belmont in Saturday grade prior. He gets Pike back in the saddle from a favourable alley and he was trending the right way before last start's hiccup. Comes into this fresh and can bounce back. SUNNY HONEY (1) ran on strongly from toward the back over 1200m here in Saturday company. Back to the midweeks now, with Martinan's 3kg claim coming in handy. Goes well at this course and distance and is expected to put his best foot forward. EMPRESS OF INDIA (8) is better than she showed first-up and the inside draw can see her sit closer in the run. MAGNALEE (2) won't be far away on resumption. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Made In Mexico.
