WSB Leaders in Ante Post MIDDLE STAKES 1900m Track: GOOD Rain (Max: 23) True |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting a solid pace primarily from Royal Swan Master. THE GREY KING (3) finished second of nine when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track. He raced well last prep and jumping from an inside draw looks well paced to go one better. GOLDEN PEACE (7) recorded a game win over 1750m at Scottsville last start and now that he is back in winning form should prove hard to beat again. ROYAL SWAN MASTER (1) won his last start over 1700m at Greyville All Weather when sent out as the favourite. He jumps from the inside gate and rates well as a leading contender. BELLA SICCOME (8) finished fifth of eight over 1600m at Scottsville last start after having won his two previous starts. Should race up on the speed and is worth another chance.
