GOING: S(7)

FAIRDINKUM FLOORING CLASS 3 HANDICAP 1006m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 25)   Rail: +3m Entire.  

Pixie Hallow and Cool Fizz should set a strong gallop. FLOSS'S ONE (5) should have gone close to winning as favourite last time out at Coffs Harbour when finishing fourth, but she was held up at a vital stage, and fourth was her lot. She can secure the run of the race early on and is poised to make amends. Follow your money. WILLINGALE (4) needed her fresh up run and then fought on gamely to finish third after a tough trip at Scone nearly 5 weeks ago. She drops down to country class, and with the advantage of the pole position, she can take this out. COOL FIZZ (11) is very consistent and was only run down late when finishing second by a short-head at Grafton 15 days ago. She has 2.5kg less to carry here and can go one better. BOAMBEE BEACH (6) is racing her way into full fitness and was a brave runner-up at Coffs Harbour 9 days ago. A wide gate here is no help, but with some early luck, she can figure in the top 3 again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Floss's One to win.
