GOING: G(4)

GREAT NORTHERN Class 5 Plate 1350m

Track: GOOD4   Clouds (Max: 28)   Rail: Out 1m Entire. (Pent: 5.4).  

Solid tempo with several going forward. BELVEDERE BOYS (3) resumes for Matt Dunn and brings compelling metro form from Sydney. He was last seen spacing a Randwick CL3 by 4L over 1400m heavily bet. The promising galloper is proven fresh and a gun hoop rides from a handy gate. He should have them well covered. Tougher sorting the rest. SLEIGH QUEEN (13) is third-up and poised to find her best. Resumed here in good order and was cruelled by a wide gate following. She has more to give and maps for the run of the race. The Neasham-Archibald barn has scratched the stablemate. BROKEN HILL (4) has been going around in stronger company. Maps well and he has pieces of form that would see him in the money. GENETIC FREAK (12) wasn't beaten far at Doomben and three back was even better there. He's also a trifecta chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Belvedere Boys.
