GOING: H

Horsham Doors & Glass 0 - 58 Handicap 1600m

Track: Heavy 10   Rain (Max: 10)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Solid tempo with Gold Governor leading from Royal Inference and Psychotic. FOREST DIAMOND (13) resumed in the race that Tarshin won and was beaten less than a length then stepped up to 64 grade last time and showed good improvement to get into second spot. Should be nearing peak fitness now. ROYAL INFERENCE (1) has a win and a placing from two runs this time in and is drawn well, so much be respected. PSYCHOTIC (8) is another well-served at the barrier draw and should have come on from the solid first-up run. TAPA CAPALL (5) resumes. Has placed in three of five previous first up outings. GOLD GOVERNOR (4) produced the best run of his campaign last start. Kept ticking over with a trial and can build upon that performance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Forest Diamond each way.
