GOING: G(3)

LADBROKES RACING EXTRAS IN MULTI BENCHMARK 60 Handicap 1100m

Track: Good 4     Rail: True.  

Been A Secret, Turn Up The Music and Mr Encore to battle for the lead at a strong tempo. BEEN A SECRET (1) used the rails draw to good effect first-up, bouncing straight to the lead and scoring over 1000m at Toowoomba. Was heavily backed and keeps a handy 3kg claim. Draws awkwardly today but has the gate speed to manage. She is sure to take some stopping with the extra fitness. TURN UP THE MUSIC (4) fought on last start over 1000m at Toowoomba, beaten 2.2L. Maps well and has decent prospects. RED FEATHER BOA (12) was safely held last start when 8 lengths away at Sunshine Coast. Has claims if she can reproduce her win at Kilcoy two starts back. BOOGA RAY (6) returns from a break. Ran fourth in most recent trial at Toowoomba Inner Track. Opened last campaign with a fourth at Warwick over 1100m. Has place claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Been A Secret.
