PINJARRA SCARPSIDE   19 Jun 2025
 
GOING: S(7)

STATE WIDE TURF SERVICES HANDICAP 1400m

Track: Soft 7     Rail: +8m Entire.  

Solid tempo anticipated with Lillian taking charge. BARECOVE ROCK (2) got the job done two back which proved a strong form reference before getting too far back and never featuring at Ascot 43 days ago. He's been freshened since then and has a quiet trial at Belmont. He's likely to get back in the run, but he's shown plenty of promise thus far and can return to winning ways. LEAD BY EXAMPLE (6) resumes with a nice trial under her belt recently. Pike liked what he saw there and hops in the saddle despite not riding her in that outing. She'll be better over further, but she has placed first-up in the past and the trial suggested she's ready to go. RANYX (3) won well last start and may prove tough to run down from the front yet again. ONE PUNCH (4) has two placings from three runs this campaign. Expected to be in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Barecove Rock on top.

Big chance on the back of that encouraging effort last time.
