GOING: G

Superior Food Services C,G&E BM64 Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 30)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Not a great deal of pressure likely in the small field, with Legend Of Dubai a potential leader. HOWDY (5) is racing well, running on strongly from back in the field to score over this trip at Cranbourne last time out. A repeat of that effort will see him very hard to beat once more. ALLIBOR (3) can mix his form but did win well two back here over 1600m. He didn't run out the longer trip last time out but should be strong late back in trip. OUTTA COMPTON (1) resumes. He placed in a pair of Murray Bridge runs over this trip prior to a spell and that sort of form reads well. LEGEND OF DUBAI (2) didn't really fire last time in but did tackle stronger races and this looks more suitable. Maps well and will take some beating. DAKARAI (4) can improve third up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Howdy to win.
