GOING: S(7)

ABERNETHY GORE SOLICITORS BENCHMARK 66 HANDICAP 1300m

Track: SOFT 7   Rain (Max: 9)   Rail: Out 7m Entire. (Pent: 5.4).  

Genuine pace with Big Bay Wolf taking up the running ahead of Loose Love. Tricky. TAKE ME TO CHURCH (9) resumes and has the best figures presenting. He was narrowly beaten at Newcastle on debut and has trialled sharply at Rosehill for his return. Goes on top despite the wide gate. BIG BAY WOLF (10) resumes owning two soft trials. Led narrowly beaten at Hawkesbury before spelling and will be naturally improved. He's been gelded and maps for the run of the race. PICASSO'S DREAM (12) missed 1L here first-up and the longer sprint suits. The outside gate is a niggle. BOKUDEN (4) is also Sydney-trained and is back in grade. A key player at best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Take Me To Church appeals most.
