GOING: S(5)

WILKINSON SEAFOOD Class 5 Handicap 1100m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 24)   Rail: +5m 1000m-W/Post, +4m Remainder. (Pent: 4.84)  

Plenty of speed from Sonny Daze and Kodiak. SPEED MAP (13) has placed three of five around this circuit and has been racing in a rich vein of form of late. Draws favourably and rates the testing material against this lot. SUPER IMPRESSIVE (11) has won two of her past three and it's hard to knock mares in form. Has to be included in calculations. OUTWEIGHED (3) has placed two from two over this distance range and will be at peak fitness for this. Top-three conveyance on best form. HE'S HEAVEN (1) gets 3kg weight relief with the claim and is a must for the exotics players. LADY SHOTGUN (2) next in line in a good contest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Speed Map to salute.
