SOUTHERN CENTRAL ENGINEERING BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1050m Track: GOOD 3 Clear (Max: 19) Rail: True. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting a moderate pace headed by Tycoon Artie and Violet And Blue. TRIFECTA RUBY (7) was brave when returning at Griffith, sticking on well for a narrow second. Strips fitter and should be right in the finish again. KAIDA BLAZE (5) resumes over a favoured journey and has run well fresh without winning. Will likely have to head back from the wide draw and be saved for the final shot at them. ANTISOCIAL (3) was much better last start at Tatura when just missing the frame. Not much tougher this time and gets some much-needed weight off with the 3kg claimer reunited. In the mix. VAINSTREAM (6) found a couple better last time out over 1100m at Goulburn, beaten just third. Likely to feature again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 7,5,3,6.
