GOING: S(7)

CLEVERTRONICS SUPER MAIDEN PLATE 1400m

Track: SOFT 7   Clear (Max: 16)   Rail: Out 10m Entire.  

Trunk can work over from a wide alley to lead. TRUNK (8) has been placed in two strong-looking races since resuming. Will be burning petrol early from a wide draw but showing plenty of fight of late. Just about ready to win now. ECLIPSION (2) showed plenty of potential in a three-start debut campaign. Ready to go after two recent trials and no surprise to see a bold effort first up in an open race. KING OF THUNDER (7) has displayed good ability at the trials and has to be kept safe in his debut. Love the fact McDonald rode him at his latest trial. That's always a push. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Trunk to break through.
