MRS MAC'S HANDICAP 1400m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 16)   Rail: Out 5m Entire.  

Little early pressure with Miss Drakova, Thehorseman and Watch Me Rock prominent. WATCH ME ROCK (4) was chasing a hat-trick of wins when finishing second by a nose here a fortnight ago over 1300m after scoring at his prior start over 1400m by a short-head. He is a progressive type who gets a nice swing in the draw this time and is poised to make an immediate return to the winners' circle here. TRIO (9) is a stablemate of the top pick who has come of age lately and made it 3 wins from his past 4 starts when scoring on this track 2 weeks ago by a nose over this trip. He is facing another rise in class but with the same weight to carry, he can repeat the dose. STARCHIENNE (11) is resuming from a spell and has not missed a cheque in 4 starts fresh-up in the past, including a couple of wins. She has had 2 trials under her belt and is only lightly tried for a 7-year-old mare. Keep an eye on the market moves. Can win. BELLINI MISS (10) was a comfortable Northam winner in lesser company last start and is capable of measuring up here as well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Watch Me Rock to win.
