DUBBO RSL HEALTH & FITNESS BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: SOFT 7   Clouds (Max: 16)   Rail: +3m 900-400 True Remainder.  

I'm Kenough, Pattera and Our Celebrity to match motors but there will be other pressure. OAKFIELD UTAH (3) kept fresh for this after jumping sharply in grade on a heavy (9) track with a tiring fourteenth over 1500m at Rosehill in Highway class. Can overcome the awkward gate today and return to form with winning rider going back aboard. IRISH JIG (2) fourth-up for this and ready to peak in this easier contest. Was in the firing line on the turn with a courageous second over 1200m at Tamworth. Nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again. PATTERA (9) was a month between runs when he shouldered the big weight to get the job done over 1065m at Wagga Riverside five weeks ago. Has a good record at this trip and can play a major role with map favours. SORRENTO PALACE (4) improved last time out when up in trip for a fighting second over 1200m at Bathurst. Tricky map and place best. CHEAP SHOT (7) smart heavy track win at Bathurst, one for the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Oakfield Utah and Irish Jig bring the right credentials to win this.
