GOING: G(4)

EXPERIENCE GOLD COAST SUNLIGHT CONSOLATION 3YO Plate 1100m

Track: GOOD4   Rain (Max: 27)   Rail: True. (Pent: 4.88)  

With good speed engaged, a strong tempo is anticipated. MISS FREELOVE (8) is a consistent conveyance who is yet to miss the top-four in seven career starts including placing at G3 level before the spell. Has placed two from two when first-up and should find this assignment a touch easier. Looks very hard to toss. JOHNNY (3) hasn't done much wrong with a win and two seconds from four career efforts and has revved up for this with a recent Randwick trial win. Maps ideally for this from gate three and is sure to feature in the finish. FORGOTTEN SPIRIT (11) has been right there in all four outings since joining the Gollan yard and will be rock-hard fit for this. Top-three credentials. SISSTAINABLE (9) draws poorly but is capable enough on her day. Can play a role with any luck in running. KING OF POP (1) best of the rest while fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Miss Freelove.
