SUPER LIQUOR GREERTON 1400m Track: HEAVY 10 Out 6m |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Despite the wide draw Loch Katrine has the dash to cross and lead a low-pressure contest. PRUDENTIA (11) will appreciate it if there is any rain on the day, and she has been close up in a couple of starts since her big finishing win by a head at Te Rapa in April. She maps to receive the run of the race from the pole position, and she has also won here in the past. On top for us. RIBKRAKA (3) has found form at the right time when finishing third at Te Rapa 2 weeks ago in a similar field. He normally holds his form when fit, and he should be hard to beat. PRINCIPLED (1) sailed home out wide when winning his last start at Te Aroha by a space. He cops an extra 3kg, but in similar heavy track conditions, he can repeat the dose. SENSE OF TIMING (4) has needed both of her starts back from a spell, and even from a wide gate, she is worth including in all top 4 combos. THE NOMAD (8) can mix his form, but he has won his only start on this track. Stick with him at value. SUGGESTED PLAY: Prudentia can win this.
