GOING: G(3)

ARGYLE ENGINEERING - STEEL SLIPPER SPRINT 1100m

Track: FIRM 2     Rail: True.  

Speed assured from Tellez, Exceedingly Magic and Hellivit pressing on ahead of Fast Freeze. CITY OF SIN (2) is chasing three wins on the trot. They've come over this very distance when sitting off the pace. Assuming they do run along, that has to be of great benefit to his chances. Is really attacking the line. TELLEZ (1) will be one of those charging along in front. He does seem well placed coming off good form and carrying a weight he has done previously. HELLIVIT (3) was a winner at Katherine just last week. Will be getting a soft run for much of the journey. FAST FREEZE (5) has her first outing in the new yard. Must be a big watch on the betting. EXCEEDINGLY MAGIC (4) must improve quickly here. SUGGESTED PLAY: City Of Sin racing with gusto.
