GOING:

FORSMAN RACING 2000m

Track: AW     True  

Expecting Mahoe to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. WHOSAID (2) turned it on last time out when coming with a big run wide before the turn, and racing away to a comfortable win by over a length last week. He won't find this much harder, and if his mind is on the job, then he can repeat the dose. ELOISE (5) has been disappointing in her last couple of starts on a pair of testing wet turf tracks. She is back racing in an anti-clockwise direction on the poly and is expected to bounce back into the money. Each-way value. JACK IN THE BOX (3) weakened out of it after setting the pace at Arawa Park 11 days ago, after winning there before that. He is worth another chance in this. Include in all combinations. YOU KNOW (7) has not had the best of luck in his last couple of starts, but gets a nice swing with his draw, and can take this out. MADAME MOET (8) has been late clear in her last 2 starts and then rocketed home into second place. She has her first run on this course, and can have the last say. MAHOE (1) is the likely leader. Include. SUGGESTED PLAY: You Know to provide some each-way value in the get-out stakes.
