GOING: S(7)

WAUCHOPE RSL CLUB WAUCHOPE CUP 1512m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: +5m Entire.  

Genuine tempo with Xtra Approval and Supreme Command leading the way. SONOFDEC (1) Four Pillars winner last November ready to peak fourth-up. Worked hard early from the gate to dictate the early speed when a courageous third over 1600m in the Gunnedah Cup. Drawn to stalk the good speed and has solid winning prospects. INDIFFERENCE (2) comes out of the same race as Sonofdec after disappointing on the back-up with a tiring seventh in the Gunnedah Cup. Best figures measure up and assess on the solid Country Cup run at Scone. BABY RYAN (3) stretches out to the 1500m for the first time and expected to run the trip. Just under a month between runs with a battling tenth over 1250m at Taree. Strips fitter and assess on his good second in the NRRA Championship at Coffs Harbour last February. A POUND OF SALT (5) eye-catching run in town when fourth to Hovland over 1600m at Warwick Farm in BM72 grade. A repeat effort keeps him in the mix. GHOST WALKER (7) returns from a let-up after finding some form at his last two runs. Keep safe from the gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sonofdec each way.
