GOING: S(5)

SKY RACING Class 5 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 6m Entire. (Pent: 5.85).  

Solid pace likely with Amore Veloce prominent early on. SPACE TRACKER (1) fought on gamely when third fresh up and after having no luck in his next run on this track he was successful here 3 weeks ago when coming with a well-timed run to score by over a length. He won't find this much harder and with the same weight to carry, he can win again. AMORE VELOCE (8) ran out of condition when resuming at Ipswich and then was only claimed late after leading here a fortnight ago, finishing second, half-a-length from the winner. She is nicely weighted for this and will be peaking third up. Hard to beat. APRIL IN AUGUSTA (4) was only a short head away from winning at Ipswich fresh up and then had a tough trip when fading out of it in a tougher field at Eagle Farm last time out. She is better placed in this and from a superior gate, she is expected to bounce straight back into the money. MIO SORRENTO (11) did not have much galloping room here last time out and drops 4 kilos for this assignment. He is worth another chance. Each-way value. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mio Sorrento each-way.
