RICHARD CROOKES CONSTRUCTION SUPER MAIDEN HANDICAP 1100m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: Out 3m 800m-400m. True Remainder; Cutaway Applies. (Pent: 6).  

Portfolia to take up the running at a decent clip from Miami Baby. PORTFOLIA (4) overcame a tardy start to lead before finding a couple better on debut recently over 1000m at Kembla. Meets a weaker line-up today and will no doubt take a lot from that experience. Sure to prove tough to catch, particularly with so many key rivals coming out. MIAMI BABY (10) showed pace and wasn't beaten far on debut at Hawkesbury last start. Won't meet with as much pressure up front this time. Comes in a lot closer with all the scratchings so he is right in the mix. DEEL ME A QUEEN (13) is a Dundeel filly on debut for Paul Messara. Won a recent trial in good fashion so although a longer trip will eventually be her thing this looks a winnable race. BROKERAGE (1) is racing well without winning at the provincials. Very fit and must be included. TRAPEZE LEGEND (5) has been kept fresh since a nice debut over 900m here in heavy ground eight weeks ago. Sure to have something to offer. SUGGESTED PLAY: Portfolia to win.
