GOING: S(5)

Morellis Furniture and Bedtime BM64 Handicap 1010m

Track: SOFT 6   Clear (Max: 18)   Rail: Out 6m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.66).  

Expecting a strong pace headed by Superset, Don't Russia and Martial Music. MARTIAL MUSIC (1) ran well fresh at Sandown Hillside for the new stable, racing on the pace and only going under by 0.8 lengths in second. He can improve off that and will take plenty of catching here. CORE CONCEPT (2) beat Mantua fresh who was coming off a win over Martial Music which ties in nicely. Core Concept is a smart type himself who can cross up and win again. DON'T RUSSIA (11) is a lightly raced type who resumed with a solid third at Mornington. She won her maiden here on debut at huge odds. FREE WILLED (10) resumes. She has pieces of form that would be hard to beat in this. SUPERSET (4) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Martial Music.
