GOING: S

Adrian Thomas Industrial Benchmark 56 Handicap 1100m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: +2m 800m-600m, True Remainder .  

I Am Victorious should find the front with Somaurum and Nankeen on his heels. Good contest. SIOUX WARRIOR (4) has been rock-solid this campaign for the Macmillan camp without breaking through. Gets in well with the claim and doesn't have to find much more to get the verdict. NADEGE (11) closed off strongly again last start to grab second at Strathalbyn, following up her barnstorming maiden win at Murray Bridge. Looks set to be charging late once more. I AM VICTORIOUS (3) returns and has been readied with trials, catching the eye in his most recent. Has the talent to be very competitive fresh. THE GOV (1) is on the quick turnaround today and stuck on well over 1100m last time out. Not out of this with the 4kg claimer engaged. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Sioux Warrior to win.
