SANDY CREEK PUB FORK N PORK PLATE BENCHMARK 70 Handicap 1350m Track: Good 4 Rail: True. (Pent: 4.78) |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Unleash. THE CLAIMANT (9) resumes here but the form he showed when last in work was good enough for a race of this calibre. Gets plenty of weight relief with the 4kg claim and rates a genuine top-three contender while fresh. TUHINGA (1) saves his best form for this journey with three wins and seven placings from 17 starts. Strips fitter second-up from the spell and can make his presence felt with the apprentice claim coming in handy. MR WANDJI (15) has a win and two seconds from five spins around this circuit and should give backers a sight. CELESTIAL HARBOUR (2) can mix her form a touch but should find this a more suitable event than her latest effort on the Gold Coast. Can make an impression from the good alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 9,1,15.
