GOING: S(5)

PARKES SERVICES CLUB PARKES CUP 1600m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 13)   Rail: True.  

Expecting Listen To The Band to take up the running with Aesthete and Ready To Humble close at hand. LISTEN TO THE BAND (8) tough gelding with a sound win record. Not that far away at latest when a close-up eighth over 1200m in the Wagga Town Plate two-and-a-half weeks ago. Up sharply in trip but gets his chance to run it out from the inside gate. READY TO HUMBLE (2) at his peak now and placed four times over the mile. Worked hard early with the 60kg before tiring late when eighth over 1400m at Canberra on April 19. Will sit on the speed and expected to play a leading role. INVERTATIONAL (11) improving mare who looks well placed here with the 2kg claim. Came from near last on the turn with the 60.5kg when a slashing fourth over 1600m at Wagga on May 2. Looks up to the rise in grade from the good gate. TORETTO (5) working up to a win and desperate for this trip now. Strong through the line when second over 1400m at Canberra in a TAB Federal on April 19. Placed in all four runs over this distance and can race closer here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 8,2,11,5.
