GOING: H(10)

BRANDT TRACTOR 1200m

Track: HEAVY 10     Out 10.5m  

Expecting Cleat to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. CHANTE MOI (3) ran well enough last start at G3. The mare is racing super this time in so far. Will prove tough to beat here for sure. BARONET (1) was disappointing at last start but his previous form is sound. He has been course-placed before. Quinella and trifecta chance in this. SCOUSER (11) best run came at last start when fourth over 1400m at Trentham. She cannot be omitted drawn the ace once more. CLEAT (8) he has been a close second in his last two runs. Course placed before. Cannot be omitted awkward draw and all. ROCKIN ROSIE (10) has drawn wide here. Has been placed in two of three course runs. Still hard to keep out of the multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Chante Moi looks the winner here even from an awkward draw.
