JONKER FIRST YEARLINGS 2025 BENCHMARK 58 Handicap 1650m

Track: Heavy 10     Rail: +1m 600m-300m; True Remainder.  

Solid tempo set by Born To Be Alive and Whomsonever who are both capable of leading. SAVVY BEE (4) is knocking on the door of another victory with three consecutive runner-up finishes this time in work and gets Jones back on from the low draw. Will be rock-hard fit for this now and rates the leading contender. THREE GRACES (5) got the maiden out of the way last time out in impressive fashion and will have taken some confidence from that win. Can make it back-to-back. WHOMSONEVER (11) absolutely smashed them at the Gold Coast at the latest effort and must be respected from the Goldman camp. Top-three aspirations. VORTEXIA (8) has shown sharp improvement since moving up from Victoria and cannot be underestimated. THE WELLIAN (7) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Savvy Bee to get a well-deserved victory.
