GOING: S(7)

SYDNEY ROOSTERS PARTNERS HANDICAP 1600m

Track: HEAVY 8   Clear (Max: 18)   Rail: True. (Pent: 6.05)  

Cool Jakey, Quietness and Nellie Leylax to take up the running at a decent tempo. NELLIE LEYLAX (15) imported gelding who was specked in betting at his first Australian start when a respectable on pace third over this track and trip. Would have taken great benefit from that run and gets a similar set up on the limit weight. Goes forward and will prove hard to hold out. COOL JAKEY (9) far from disgraced when taking on the mile for the first time with a game second to Hollywood Hero here last time out. Gets good weight relief with the claim and will give a ton of cheek again. MIGHTY ULYSSES (1) near his top for this and back in grade after showing plenty of fight when fourth over 1600m in the LR Scone Cup. Well placed here. HOLLYWOOD HERO (12) saved plenty of ground along the inside at his second run back when a dominant winner at this track and trip. Can keep the momentum going despite drawing out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Nellie Leylax at the good each way price.

Best form stacks up nicely and worth another chance.
