GOING: G(4)

Ranvet Handicap 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 21)   Out 4m Entire Circuit  

Loads of early pressure, primarily from Fickle, Pride Of Sullivan and Gracie's Rain. WAKANJEJA (3) started favourite in a slightly stronger race here first up and has been kept fresh for this after running on well off a slow start to finish a close-up fourth. If she jumps cleanly here she'll prove very hard to hold out. ENNA'S DREAM (5) resumes. She placed in every run last campaign without winning, running well fresh that time over 1100m. She got over a bit more ground after that so the 1000m is some query here but she's fairly sharp and has the ability. PURE BLISS (11) is a progressive mare who resumed with a nice win in Adelaide over 1050m at Morphettville. Tricky draw this time but she looks capable of measuring up. FICKLE (13) was a dominant maiden winner two back and followed it up with a very good effort at BM70 level here. Back in trip shouldn't be an issue, she rates a good chance. SPLIT DECISION (10) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Wakanjeja.
