GOING: G(4)

RADICOOL AIR BENCHMARK 58 Handicap 1600m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 27)   Rail: +3m Entire. (Pent: 6.30)  

Solid tempo likely with Hazey Hill, Silver Agent and Captain Eagle prominent. Looks a wide-open contest. LUCONI (2) has been knocking on the door of another victory placing in both starts this preparation and will be cherry-ripe now third-up from the spell. Must be respected from the Bruce yard and should be going very close. PIREONTI (5) has only missed a drum once in four attempts over this track and trip and gets some weight relief with the 2kg claim. Should be in this for a long way. DUKEDOM (7) got the maiden out of the way here two back before just missing the placings at the latest effort. Don't dismiss. CAPTAIN EAGLE (3) broke the maiden status last time out and winning hoop Du Plessis sticks in the saddle. Can go back-to-back. HAZEY HILL (1) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Luconi each-way.
