GOING: H(8)

Tradies Food & Catering BM52 Handicap 1000m

Track: Heavy 8   Clouds (Max: 20)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 7.05)  

Squazeemoto, Irresistible Sir and Belriah to take up the running at a decent tempo. Another one with plenty of scratchings. IRRESISTIBLE SIR (3) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing seventh at Moe over 1000m but has put in some solid placings of late that render him competitive and he won't get many better chances. STREET SWAGGER (1) resumes. He's run well fresh in the past and boasts a decent winning strike rate compared to a few of these. Expect him to be charging through late. FEUDAL EMPIRE (13) resumes for a new yard having won first up last time in. Reece Goodwin is good with these tried horses and he gets in light after the claim. THE CRUISER (5) doesn't win many but has each way claims on best and he does like it here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Irresistible Sir on top.
