GOING: G(4)

HANLONS WINDOWS MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 29)   Rail: True.  

Many of these step out for the first time so a genuine tempo is expected. RARE MOON (9) disappointed last time on a wet track but form before that was honest enough so she could bounce back. TIGLETTA (12) is a two-year-old on debut for the Baker stable who has trialled quite well and no surprise if she's measuring up. JOYRIDER (1) has trialled strongly for a big first-up run and is one to keep vert safe. LOCKHART (11) on debut and PREORDAIN (2) first-up are worth considering. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rare Moon to win.

Was at long odds at debut, 6th of 8 at Wyong Mid 2&3yo Mdn on April 3 over 1000m, slow going 6 len behind Oakfield Jupiter with 59kg at $41. Fair effort at only start but likely improver from a good gate.

Three-year-old filly (Exceedance - Cappella Di Piazza) will no doubt benefit from the three trials leading in today's debut. Was second in a 800m trial on April 7 at Kembla Grange. Latest trial okay and could be placed.
