LOUNGES PLUS - BEST VALUE FURNITURE PACE 1609m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 21)    

BETTOR KEEP ROCKING (6) scored a win the last time he raced at this circuit last month and was good again in his latest appearance when third from the back row in this grade at Newcastle, beaten 3.8 metres. Top chance. PARIS PRINCESS (9) was midfield from a similar draw to this last start and had placed here prior. Back to a distance where she owns a good record and should be hitting peak fitness. ROCKINDOWNUNDER (1) didn't do a bad job when fourth from a wider barrier at Newcastle last time out. Hasn't missed a placed in four tries here including a win. Should get her chance from the inside draw. DOUGS RULES (4) must be respected having added to a handy record at this circuit and distance with a last-start win.
