GOING: S

Moe Refrigeration BM52 Handicap 1200m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.30)  

Strong tempo, primarily from Spirit Maker and See It All. GATOR (2) brings winning form into this which not many of the others can claim. He did it easily when last seen at Kilmore in a BM58 and now drops back in grade here. He's not the most reliable conveyance but not many of these are and a repeat of last start wins this. MACHINEGUNRHON (7) struggled last time at Donald but had been solid prior in a stronger race at Pakenham, beaten five lengths in a Class 1. That's good enough to figure prominently here. CABLE TOWN (1) resumes from a short break. Struggled at most recent appearance at Ararat but is better than that and this is a suitable race. NEYLON'S DREAM (11) is going okay and an each way hope. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gator to win.
