GOING: G(4)

WIDDEN STUD CLASS 2 HANDICAP 1280m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 31)   Rail: +3m 1000m - 300m, True Remainder.  

Solid tempo headed by Zoomorphic and Go Isla Go. BLEND OF THREE (1) is holding form beautifully and looks the clear benchmark. Dominant at Mudgee two back then went down narrowly at Dubbo when charging late. Backing up quickly and drawn to enjoy another sweet run, he is the one they all have to beat. SUPAIRO (3) has had a month between runs and arrives off a tidy trial win at Muswellbrook. Has shown plenty of ability in stronger races and will take plenty of catching if he rolls forward. ZOOMORPHIC (2) also resumes and is more than capable fresh, having kicked off last prep with a strong placing at Wyong. Genuine chance. SENALDA (11) keeps improving and went close last time at Nowra. Right in the mix again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Blend Of Three to win.
