GOING: H(9)

Bendigo Property Maintenance BM64 Handicap 1000m

Track: Heavy 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: Out 4m Entire Circuit.  

Hot tempo expected from Whistlefield and Delicate Lady. DELICATE LADY (11) peaks and is the one they have to beat. Followed an easy Maiden win here first-up with a near miss at Caulfield before a 2L defeat at Sandown-Lakeside when she worked to lead. Has a key jockey switch to Lane today and she will skip across and ride the speed. Well-placed to win. Tougher sorting the others. SOREL RISING (3) did a big job from last beaten 1.5L here first-up when expected to need it. Finally draws a reasonable gate and can sit more forward. Likes his home track and should go well again. WHISTLEFIELD (2) resumes with a small claim and has been racing well in stronger company. Has jumped out positivly and first up last campaign she went close on the heavy at Warrnambool in a 70. WALTER SPUR (18) will be around the mark with average luck in running. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Delicate Lady.
