SPORTS HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Winning Money can take up the running. WINNING MONEY (10) never got into the race over 1000m fresh and came to this track and trip last time out, missing out by 0.5L. Purton hops in the saddle now and he's knocking on the door of his maiden win. This sets up beautifully for him and he can score his maiden win this time around. FLYING WROTE (4) got the job done back in October and has been back to the trials since then after being withdrawn on vet's advice in early November. His latest trial was very good and he maps for a lovely run just off the speed. Can return on a positive note. ARGENTO OCEAN (2) has been kept up to the mark with a recent trial following a 1L victory at this track and trip as favourite. The form out of that race has stacked up nicely and the inside draw is a big tick. Can repeat the dose once again. SKY CAP (1) can feature in the finish first-up with Moreira booked in what looks a targeted assault.
