GOING: S(5)

HIBERNIAN HOTEL BENCHMARK 50 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 27)   Rail: +7m Entire. (Pent: 5.00)  

Solid early pace with Gwennybegg and Ima Dubawi rolling forward. TAYTAY BAY (2) did little and finished ninth over 1600m at Queanbeyan last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Canberra the run before. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. EMELIA'S MAGIC (12) is an eight-start maiden who could only manage to finish eighth at her latest appearance over 2000m at Kembla Grange after she was well back on straightening. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. STORM DE LUNE (5) raced below his best last time when seventh over 2000m at Kembla Grange. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. GWENNYBEGG (6) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish tenth over 1600m at Sapphire Coast. Solid top-three prospects. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 2,12,5,6.
