GOING: H(8)

BRIMS CONCRETE & LANDSCAPE SUPPLIES BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1550m

Track: HVY8   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

All About Artie to take charge ahead of Whomsonever at a solid tempo. SAXINOUE (1) is unbeaten second-up so he can improve on what was an even effort fresh making some late ground over a shorter trip. Fitter and better suited here so expect him to be competitive. ALL ABOUT ARTIE (5) is getting close to another win after placings at past couple. Led and just failed on a heavy track last time and with blinkers on can give a sight again. WHOMSONEVER (11) broke through for a handy win at Ipswich on heavy ground and with the confidence up has to be considered. EL ASTEROID (6) fresh and DAZZLING ROBERT (13) are place chances in a race that has fallen away considerably. SUGGESTED PLAY: Saxinoue to win.

Second run from a spell sat on the pace before fading second last of 10 at Ipswich Bm65 on June 6 over 1350m, slow going 6 len behind Sir Carter carrying 59kg at $17. Might not have come back this time in and this run will be decisive.
