#FILLIESINRACING MR 68 HANDICAP 1200m Track: SOFT Rain (Max: 11) |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
No recognised leader to cart them along so a modest pace is in store.
HEATHCLIFF (5) has hit the top five at his past three outings and strikes a winnable contest here. Enjoys a drop in weight and can play a role in the finish. ARCTIC ICE (4) looked good winning over this track and trip last time out and will take a lot of confidence from that victory. Rates a leading contender. BLUFF ON BLUFF (1) has won over this course and distance and is drawn to get a cosy run from the inside alley. Should be in this for a very long way. AULD MUG (2) is another to win over this track and trip and looks a top-three conveyance on best form. BIRDIE AND BOGIE (3) strips fitter third-up and can earn a cheque.
