CUP WEEK HOSPITALITY ON SALE 26 JUNE RATING 65 1400m

Track: AW     True  

A solid tempo on the cards with Corps D'elite taking charge. HEY NOW (3) all of his wins have come right here. Not too bad in both runs here this time in. He is used to drawing wide so can cope in this. HIGHLAND FLING (9) has won here before. Drawn wide once again. Trifecta and first four chance still. CORRECTION (1) he too has won here before. Ran a good second fresh up. Can be included in all of your multiples here without any doubt. CORPS D'ELITE (10) is a class riser after an easy fresh up win here. Wide draw. Looks to have more wins in store so cannot be excluded. VERDIAN (4) he has been hit and miss of late so can be very hot or cold. Place or first four chance at best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hey Now is the one for possible overs as this is his best track.
