GOING: H(8)

First National Bonnici and Associates 0-58 Handicap 1400m

Track: HVY8   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.43).  

The speedy Enamour should find the front with Runaway Soul and Epice Dieu on her heels. Danny O'Brien-trained RUNAWAY SOUL (3) deserved the Maiden win and then spiked his figures narrowly beaten at Bendigo over this distance. Maps for the run of the race and Rawiller is a key jockey booking. Tough to beat. EPICE DIEU (2) led and won a Ballarat Maiden over this distance spiking his figures. It was a good effort and he can position handy. Will get every chance to take the next step. WHITEHART (11) will drift back from the rail but is going well enough to include in the trifectas at least. ENAMOUR (13) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Runaway Soul.
