Pink Roadhouse Benchmark 58 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 25)   Rail: True.  

Genuine pace with Raymond's Reward taking up the running ahead of Love So Sweet and Uncle Barry. UNCLE BARRY (5) has returned in great order this campaign. His most recent two runs include a win at Broken Hill and then a lip-defeat last start here. Only needs to hold his form to be fighting out the finish again. LADY MEMPHIS (8) had the better of Uncle Barry here last time but now meets him 2kgs worse which could prove significant. Winning form hard to ignore though. LOVE SO SWEET (9) tackled a dirt track for the first time last start and made a complete mess of her rivals. Hard to knock on current form. Follow up. RAYMOND'S REWARD (4) had been in sparkling form winning two races on end but missed the frame most recently when sixth over 1200m at Balaklava. Will find this a little easier than last time and can atone. LAVA LAD (2) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Uncle Barry to win.
