---|---|---|---|---|
Keen speed battle, with Throw One In, Asuriito and Rained Out prominent. Tough race to end the day. THROW ONE IN (14) racing in career best form and chasing her third straight victory. Jumped into the box seat and surged late with a determined neck win over 1010m at Moruya. Can win again despite drawing out. JACOB JOE (10) back in grade when rewarded with a gritty win over 1000m at Canberra in BM50 class. Drops in weight and placed at this track. Must respect. ASURIITO (3) well drawn and ready to win in this easier contest. Gripped on late with the 61kg when third over 1000m at Canberra. Best efforts measure up and sure to be thereabouts. PRINCESS HALO (4) capable on her day and has a good record over this track and trip. Don't dismiss. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 14,10,3.
