GOING: G(3)

SRP Funds BM56 Handicap 1175m

Track: Good 4     Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Da Plane Da Plane and Wild Irish Rover can be prominent. FLIP THE SWITCH (8) was always well back and wide last time and never came on. This is easier and drawn ideally. Gets her chance to atone. BRENLYN'S TROOPER (1) has been racing well lately, including a last start win at Swan Hill. Has speed and will take catching again. KEZZA'S LEGACY (9) has been thereabouts last couple. Regular apprentice aboard and although drawn wide tends to get back and run home hard. Overdue for a win. FINAL BOY (6) was well off best last time so was sent for a spell. Was a maiden winner the start prior leading throughout. Can give a sight fresh. NOITULOVER (13) was a last start country winner over the border and worth thought off the inside draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Flip The Switch gets another chance.
