GOING: S(5)

Good Friday Family Fun Day BM76 Hcp 1400m

Track: Soft 5   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 4.68)  

Genuine tempo with the speedy Stone Cold Stunner leading the way. PEROLA (7) had been within range in Listed and Group company over this distance before a 1.9L defeat here, dropping back to 1100m in Open grade. Arrives on a 7-day back-up and is much better suited grade-wise and over this distance. Should enjoy a soft run and will be hard to beat. ZANY GIRL (10) is a stakes winner and has raced at Group 3 level the last two. Will find this more to her liking and Byrne Burke is a positive jockey engagement. STONE COLD STUNNER (4) missed a nose here over a mile and then tackled the Group 3 Vamos Stakes over this distance, beaten 2.3L. Has a handy 3kg claim and should be right in it. MAGNAPRIME (1) missed the hat-trick here this trip by a wisher, at a short quote. Maps well and has been kept on the fresh side. Is sure to race well again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Perola appeals most.
