---|---|---|---|---|
A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. DUKE OF CAMDEN (1) has returned a much stronger gelding and looking for the 1400m now. Raced without cover with the 59kg when a game fifth over 1200m at Wyong. Will go back from the draw and pounce late. Hard to hold out. BENAMERA (5) holding his form on the provincial tracks and set to peak fourth up. Returned good closing splits from the outside gate when third over 1350m at Wyong. Well placed over this trip and will be doing his best work late. AL FLORES (4) total forgive from the wide gate in Highway class when a disappointing eleventh over 1100m at Rosehill. Finds a suitable race from the inside gate and has the figures to bounce back. GREYGENTA (12) appreciated the extra ground second up when racing closer to the speed for a respectable third over 1300m at Kembla Grange. Stays in the calculations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 1,5,4.
