GOING: S(6)

VODKA CRUISER Colts, Geldings and Entires Class 3 Handicap 1350m

Track: SOFT 6   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: +10m Entire Course..  

Cyber City to take charge ahead of Wowzino at a strong tempo. LYNEHAM (9) resumes here but got up to Group 3 level when last in work and has revved up for this with two recent trials. Looks the runner in this field with the most upside and can run a big race while fresh. STRANGLEHOLD (6) got a well-deserved win at the Gold Coast last time out and will have taken a bunch of confidence from that victory. Saves his best form for this distance range and should be right there when the whips are cracking. BLAZING HARRY (2) strips fitter second-up from the break and maps ideally for this from gate three. In the mix. WOWZINO (3) has only missed a quinella spot once in four fresh outings and gets Jones on board from the low draw. Sure to run well. The well-related CARNEGIE HILL (8) (full to G3 winner Jimmy Recard) best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lyneham to return a winner.
