GOING:

BLUE SPEC DRILLING HANDICAP 1760m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: +4m entire.  

Moderate tempo headed by Lanta from his low draw. ROYAL GUARDIAN (4) flew home to score in a photo finish last start at the mile and she steps out over further for the first time now. That looks a big tick off what we've seen recently and Nottle sticks with her. She looks a progressive type on the rise and she can bring up back-to-back wins. KIRRILY (6) has been tackling tougher events recently and comes back to a more suitable assignment today. Back to 1760m is no issue and she can sit handy from the outset. She can turn her recent form around in this. LANTA (3) couldn't be caught over 1630m here last week when setting the tempo and scoring by 0.7L. Up in trip again today can see Galati dictate throughout, and he'll be tough to run down if he gets it all his own way. BLOOD BROTHER (1) jumps out to this trip today on the back of a good maiden win last start where the form has held up. Not to be discounted. THE CANDY KID (14) can improve getting back out in trip now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Royal Guardian gets the nod in the finale.
