GOING: G(4)

PIONEER SERVICES HAWKESBURY CROWN 1300m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: True .  

Genuine tempo from Oh Diamond Lil leading Surfin' Bird. CHIDIAC (11) has gone to a new level this prep and put paid to the doubters with a sharp win over 1400m in the Country Championship Final at Randwick. Kept up to the mark with a 1000m trial. Looks up to this stronger race and can stalk the good tempo. Go close. OH DIAMOND LIL (4) tough on-pace mare with excellent fresh credentials. Proven at this level and clearly come back well judging by the two dominant trial wins. The booking of Rawiller is a good lead to her chances. CHICA MOJITO (8) fresh for this. Group 2 placed in New Zealand two-back, then ran a poor seventeenth over 1600m in the G1 NZ Thoroughbred Breeders Stakes at Trentham. Pulled up with mucus in the nostrils last start. Since fitted with a 821m Warwick Farm trial. Improver. ZASZOU (7) has been freshened since her unlucky ninth over 1200m in the G3 Star Kingdom Stakes at Rosehill. Kept up to the mark with a 1000m Hawkesbury trial. Value player. INFANCY (1) can get the trip third-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 11,4,8,7.
