GOING: G(4)

THE 2024 PINNACLES CARNIVAL ON 7PLUS HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 12m Entire. (Pent: 6.7).  

Anticipate Deep Speed, Prospector's Pick and Dreamtime Jean to set a strong tempo. STORMAGEDDON (4) ran over the top to score narrowly at Northam last time out, winning in a photo finish. William Pike now takes the ride, and he should be handy from the inside alley. Back slightly in trip isn't a worry and if he can improve again third-up, he'll be very hard to beat. DREAMTIME JEAN (2) stretched out in trip at the end of last campaign after being successful over this trip. Suspect this suits her a little better and she's won a trial coming into today. Goes well fresh and she won't be far away with the winkers on first time. GOLD KEEPER (5) turned in a good fresh effort over this course and distance and usually improves second-up. He's never missed the placings at this track and trip and while he hasn't won for a while, he's expected to go close in this suitable event. STATE OF FURY (8) resumes without a trial but does race well over this trip. Brad Parnham riding is a good push. PROSPECTOR'S PICK (3) is better than he showed last start and can feature back in grade. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Stormageddon.
