GOING: SL

CLASSIQUE LANDSCAPERS N.I. MARES CHAMPIONSHIP HCP TROT 2200m

Track: SLOW      

WALKINONSUNSHINE (4) put the writing on the wall when he finished second last start in a nice return to form. Owns a good record at this circuit and distance and is proven at the standing start. Top chance. FAITH IN MANCHESTER (6) was outclassed when tackling the big guns in the Rowe Cup last start but is much better placed here and the prior form was good, recording a win and two seconds from the previous three outings. HIGH ENERGY (7) is on the radar after a solid effort for fifth in the Anzac Cup last start and a win here two back. ONE MORE MOMENT (8) starts from a 30m handicap but is suited up to a distance where she races well.
