GOING: H(9)

WIN NETWORK COUNTRY BOOSTED BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: +3m entire.  

Made Easy, My Inspiration and Jenni Divine to battle for the lead at a strong tempo. CHAIRMAN'S LIST (9) tough old gelding never suited on the Canberra Acton track when anchored with the 62.5kg for a battling seventh on June 12. Backs-up quickly and only has to repeat the good fourth at Moruya two back to win this. BRUTAL FORCE (7) starting to hit his straps this campaign after making it two wins from the last four starts. Adept in all conditions and sure to be around the money. WITCH OF NOVEMBER (12) jumps in class today and will appreciate the steep weight drop. Shouldered the 61kg for a fighting on pace second over 1200m at Narrandera. Claim helps and don't dismiss. SCREEN SPIRIT (3) improving gelding chasing a hat-trick with a solid SP profile. Has drawn out at his last two wins and won't know himself from a low draw. From astute yard and maps well. EAST HARLEM (13) returns with an okay fresh record and claim helps from a sticky gate. Place best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 9,7,12,3.
