---|---|---|---|---|
Super Duck can lead at a strong tempo. SUPER DUCK (12) resumed further when improved comfortably winning a Beaudesert CL2 on a heavy track. A dry surface won't bother and he maps for a soft run. A second-up winner with more to offer. Tougher sorting the rest. ARTIE BEATSOME (5) is third-up seeking the hat-trick. This looks a bit harder but he can't be ruled out using an inside barrier. MR WANDJI (8) wasn't far away second-up and will be much sharper today. Races forward and won a 60 here before the spell heavily bet. MISHANI WARFARE (10) is a third-up winner with more up the sleeve. The 3kg claim brings him into it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Super Duck.
