GOING: G(4)

Wise Farm Equipment Benchmark 64 Handicap (Heat of Sportsbet Country Sprint Series) 1200m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 26)   Rail: +2m 600m - 800m, True Remainder.  

Pace strong with Greenidge and Cork Harbour leading with Come Along Jeffrey nearby. GREENIDGE (3) looks ready to bounce back after fading late as favourite over 1400m at Penola. Drops to a preferred trip and is unbeaten at this venue. Plenty to like. GUSTY WAY (8) charged home for second when resuming over 1075m and will relish the extra ground second-up. Tough to hold out. ROCKTAGON (9) has been narrowly beaten in his last two and gets Pannell to offset the wide draw. Due for a breakthrough and should be right there again. CAPTAIN JOOLIAN (2) improved sharply second-up and steps out over further with added fitness. Crowther reunites and he’s a genuine winning chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Greenidge to win.

Last start did the work up front then tired 6th of 11 at Halidon Bm64 on October 19 over 1200m, 3 len behind Charlesfort carrying 59kg at $17. The run before that sat on the speed throughout before fading second last of 9 at Mt Gambier Bm66 on October 8 over 1412m, on a wet track; 11 len behind Margie's Boy with 58kg at $21. Definite winning chance. Boasts peaks that measure up, so could add some value.

Recent form sound. At the latest run gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 9 at Strathalbyn 0-58 (App Only) on October 22 over 1200m, slow going long-neck behind Embellisher carrying 56kg at $2.30. The start before that ran on strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 11 at Murray Bridge Bm56 on September 17 over 900m, long-neck behind Refreshing with 60kg at $2.45. Nice effort last time. Due to break through soon, don't dismiss.

Second-up. First-up after four months eased back early on 4th of 8 at Ballarat Bm56 on October 6 over 1000m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Lavandula carrying 58kg at $17. Previously second-up 5th of 13 at Ararat 0 - 58 on May 10 over 1100m, 4.5 len behind Ichiberu with 58kg at $61. Strips fitter and getting in low at the weights, she's worth some thought.
