GOING: H(9)

Paxton Street Storage Benchmark 56 Handicap 1500m

Track: Heavy 9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: +5m 1450m to 900m, Incl Chute, +3m 800m to 400m. True Remainder. (Pent: 7.10)  

Genuine tempo with I'm Kenny leading the way. FLYING STEP (9) continues to knock on the door, going down narrowly at Newcastle last start over 1890m. Drops back in trip off 37-day freshen and steps out for her new stable. Bursting to break through and finds a very winnable contest here. I'M KENNY (1) went forward and stuck on gamely here last start when third over 1506m. Sure to burn across early from his outside alley and give backers a great sight. ROBERT THE PUSS (15) has mixed his form this campaign but has peaks that stack right up. Cherry-ripe fitness now gets his chance to break a long run of outs. ZIPPITY DOODAH (7) was never in the race last start but is better than that and is worth another chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Flying Step.
