GOING: S(5)

bet365 Bet Boost BM56 Handicap 1400m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Strong early tempo with Mahra and Snappy Pierro leading the way. BEAUTIFULLY (5) resumed much improved, winning a Terang Maiden and then held on well last start over 1400m at Sandown-Hillside in a strong form race, beaten 3 lengths. Has a handy 2kg claim in much easier and will be tough to beat. CAMP CABLE (4) showed good early speed before fading to finish fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1400m at Pakenham. Comes back a level and has impressed at Kyneton first-up prior. Sure to give a great sight. SNAPPY PIERRO (8) is a leader who hasn't been too far away in stronger company. Nugent will give her every chance from an inside barrier. FREAK OF NATURE (1) showed good early dash and held on well to finish a neck back in second over 1200m at Sale. Won't find this as tough, and the 4kg claim brings him right into it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Beautifully appeals most.
