GOING: S(5)

SNEDDON BROS CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1100m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: True.  

Lots of speed predominantly from Aeternum, Tango On and One Run Won. LUSKINTYRE (4) peaked on the run first-up after a long layoff with a plugging fourth over 1000m at Kembla Grange. Regular rider hops back aboard in what looks a winnable race. I AM BRAVE (6) talented mare returning. Came to the end of her prep with a respectable fourth over 1350m at Wyong last November. Returns with the two trials and will relish the fast tempo from the low draw. Top-three player. DON'T WHAT ME (3) back in class when he recorded a strong on-speed win at start seven over this trip at Nowra in the heavy going. Value contender with fitness on his side. RED CHICK (7) lived up to expectations first-up with a sharp on-pace Maiden victory over 1000m at Port Macquarie. Claim helps from the sticky gate and don't dismiss in this stronger contest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,6,3,7.
