GOING: G(4)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA Maiden Handicap 1890m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 28)   Rail: True.  

A solid tempo on the cards with Rumbling Boy taking charge. Tricky. POW NOW (10) peaks and missed 1L at Gatton over a mile last time. Maps for a soft run and she can break through. BETTER BELIEVE IT (7) disappointed last time over longer but her Doomben effort prior reads well for this contest. Has the inside barrier and will appreciate the shorter journey. THUNDER SHANGHAI (5) found more like her best in the Pow Now race at Gatton. She can make the finish on that effort. JUSTICE SERVED (1) is racing well below his Victorian best but might be ready to show more. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Pow Now.
