GOING: H(9)

MORRINSVILLE RSA 1400m

Track: HVY9     Out 3.5m  

There looks to be sound pace and pressure to end the days racing here. MAPALICIOUS (11) was close up when resuming. Wet tracker so far. ELIUD (8) ran well enough in both starts before being spelled. Trial second earlier this month. Can handle wide gate. KING WILLIAM (6) debut run was good on wet ground. Not so good fresh up on dry track. Bred to win multiple times. JUST CALL ME JONNY (9) resumes but won a trial earlier this month. Wide gate but still a chance. LOVACI (20) resumes. Trial winner. Definite chance here now she has made the field. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mapalicious and Eliud are win wagers.
