---|---|---|---|---|
Pace strong with Delightful Journey and Anything But leading with Show Of Gold nearby. HOWDY (7) is racing in good form at the moment. Two back he won a Class 1 at Cranbourne with a big run from the back before another sound effort when running into third at Pakenham. Slight rise in trip here should suit and the big track also looks suitable. BIDEN TIME (6) couldn't have been much more impressive first up at Benalla, racing clear to score by five lengths in BM58 grade with 61kg. Harder here but has to be respected off that effort. BELCONY (13) won narrowly fresh at Pakenham, struggling in a stronger race in town last time out. Can bounce back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Howdy to win.
