GOING: G

Bon Hoysted Apprentices Cup 1400m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Just a modest tempo anticipated. QUEEN OF TUSCANY (5) is knocking on the door with three consecutive second placings in a row, stepping up to BM70 grade at Cranbourne and finding the line well. Comes back a notch here and should be hard to hold out. LOWLANDS (12) was heavily supported at Warrnambool when given a positive ride from a wide gate. She's racing well and the booking of well-established apprentice Jaylah Kennedy is a positive in this apprentice-only race. SEYDOUX (1) will find this easier than recent runs in stronger grades. She ran well enough at Sale last time to think she can give a sight here. RICH LOVER (6) was solid last time at Wangaratta in fourth and should get a nice spot just behind the pace. THE MAGGSTAR (2) is coming off a good win in easier grade and can measure up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Queen Of Tuscany on top.
