GOING: G(4)

GLENNIE EQUESTRIAN TEAM BENCHMARK 60 Handicap 1890m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 34)   Rail: True.  

Shadyvale Storm to take charge ahead of Onomatopoeia at a solid tempo. ONOMATOPOEIA (3) clung on for a game win at the picnic meeting held here 4 days ago, scoring by a short-head. She tries a middle distance for the first time and drops 5kg in weight for this. He is in a good space and there is no reason why he can't win again. SHADYVALE STORM (1) is normally very competitive at this level and has won 3 times over the trip. He has been building up his fitness and is quite capable of taking this out, even with his hefty top weight. TRAUTMAN (5) has been thereabouts since winning his maiden here at the start of the season. He is fit and well so include him in all combinations. STAR CHANCE (7) is another honest toiler who may not have won for some time but he is always around the mark. He has been placed in both of his starts over the distance and can figure in the finish again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Onomatopoeia to win.
