Roadside Services and Solutions Rating 0 - 56 Handicap 1600m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 29)   Rail: +3m W/Post-400m, True Remainder.  

Genuine tempo from Rokabye Warrior leading Friend In Me. ROKABYE WARRIOR (3) went close to making it two on the bounce last start, only getting nabbed late after showing his traditional tactical speed to lead. Backs up quickly with the rise to the mile. Expect him to prove mighty tough to reel in again. ALLEGEDLY (4) is a track and trip specialist. Pulled up lame after only managing a midfield finish when sent around favourite here last time. Can put that quickly behind him and the booking of Toeroek is a big push. HATEECH (5) is another who boasts a good record over this course and distance. Chased in vain behind Rokabye Warrior but gets a good pull at the weights now. Peaking now and keeps Holder. In the mix. GOGOLF GURU (11) comes through the same race and gets in best with the weight swing, though will probably be left with too much to do from the draw. Keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rokabye Warrior can lead all the way.

Likely to get a long way back from the draw but is worth keeping safe.
