GOING: S(5)

ROBILLIARD BUILDING & DESIGN RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1000m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 6.17)  

Shahar has the pace to lead in what is likely to be a moderate tempo. LADY WILLPOWER (9) has a handy record over this sprint journey with a win and two seconds from just three attempts and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Has only missed the top-four once in seven career outings and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. SHAHAR (7) placed over this track and trip at the latest effort and Thompson stays in the irons. Looms as the main danger. ICYMISS (8) may have suffered from the dreaded second-up syndrome last time out but go on the strong Rocky win when resuming. Can bounce right back. VIN SANTO (3) next best fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Lady Willpower.
