GOING: G

Dreamedia Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 28)   Rail: True.  

Solid tempo expected primarily from Mummsie and Hebel. Toughest race of the day with plenty of win chances. LUCKY FORTUNA (6) wound up strongly and placed behind Mr Jones in a similar race last time. Meets the winner better at the weights by a couple of kilos and can turn the tables. Overdue and will go close. MR JONES (7) broke through here last time at the trip. Rises 2kg in the weights but in form and expected to run well. VALLEY PRINCE (8) placed three on end before breaking through last time. Aided by the claim and will take catching again. DOLCE D'AMOUR (9) is super consistent and looks set for another big run. Not far from Mr Jones latest and can turn the tables. DANIHER (2) strips fitter and expected to figure prominently. Has placed 3/4 second-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lucky Fortuna hard to hold out.
