GOING: G

Roderick Insurance Brokers BM56 Handicap 1408m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 4m 850m - WP, True Remainder. (Pent: 5.33)  

Certain to be a strong tempo with Brullen, Jessup and Seeyou Raider leading the charge. BRULLEN (1) doesn't have the greatest winning strike rate - 2 from 20 - but has been beaten less than a length at his past two in much stronger races than this. The other big thing in his favour is his on-pace racing style, so the low draw suits and he might just prove too good. JESSUP (2) is a stablemate to the topweight who also draws well and shouldn't be far away. Last start was disappointing but the form previous was good enough to take this out. LADY ELSA (8) had a productive second campaign and will no doubt be better for that. While the jumpouts have suggested she'll be better for this, she looks to have upside than most rivals here. MICKIDAMUZZ (12) turned in a nice first-up run, which followed some nice jumpouts, so he could be in for a handy campaign. SUGGESTED PLAY: Brullen to win.

The run before that 4th of 11 at Geelong Bm62 on November 14 over 1507m, 0.8 len behind Leg Drive carrying 59.5kg at $8. Will find this more to his liking and will give a sight on-speed.
