GOING: S(5)

Seymour Toyota BM66 Handicap 1200m

Track: Soft 5   Clouds (Max: 25)   Rail: Out 4m 1000m - WP, True Remainder.  

Genuine pace with Khadime taking up the running ahead of Superset and Top Calibre. Interesting little race. The resuming YES I KNOW (7) is the best horse in the race so we'll side with him, albeit this is definitely short of his best. He's never raced at 1200m but his form last campaign in town is a fair bit ahead of these and the market has always had a good opinion of him. AL PRANCER (8) resumes. He's another that probably wants a bit further but did win fresh at Bendigo over 1300m last time in. He draws for every chance. MISS MAHJONG (9) has the benefit of a run under her belt having hit the line well for a narrow third on resumption at Ballarat. With fitness to come, she should go close. TOP CALIBRE (1) was okay first up in a good race and was off a long spell there, expect he comes on plenty. SUGGESTED PLAY: Yes I Know to win.
