GOING: FM(2)

BILOELA PLUMBING WORKS Class 3 Plate 1200m

Track: GOOD 3     Rail: True.  

Solid tempo from Rapids and Mr Tangles battling for the lead in a high-pressure contest. FASTLING (3) failed to fire for the second time at Gympie last time out but that can happen at that track with all of its kick-back. His effort for second at Gatton fresh up is good form for this and he can bounce straight back into the money here. THE BLONDE GODDESS (11) has more upside than most in this and was a solid fourth at Mackay last time out, a length from the winner. She won fresh up at Rockhampton over this trip fresh up and should be among the hardest to beat in this. KING SAMUEL (4) ran on late when resuming at Mackay just over a fortnight ago. That was his first run in the area since making the move from Victoria and he will be better for the run. Justin P Stanley steps into the irons and the pair merit healthy respect. GALEKA (12) was beaten 4 lengths into fifth when resuming last start over 1100m at Gatton. Rates highly and expected to do much better with that run under her belt. SUGGESTED PLAY: King Samuel each way.
