GOING: G

Manhari Metals 0-58 Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.41).  

Space Cowboy and Wild Canary expected to take up the running at a strong tempo. WILD CANARY (4) won with authority at first start for new stable when successful at the picnics. This is a rise in grade but he's dropping a lot in weight. Will give this a shake. DIZZY BARMAID (6) got on the board with a maiden win at Stawell last time. The extra distance will suit and she looks a big chance to go back-to-back. POWER CABLE (8) disappointed at Bairnsdale last time but previous efforts had been sound for a race like this. Should make presence felt. MARINE PARADE (3) was a little plain at Avoca last time after a solid first-up effort. Can turn his form around. SUGGESTED PLAY: Back Wild Canary to win and take in a quinella with numbers 3,6 & 8.
