GOING: H

Grand Syndicates Handicap 2250m

Track: HVY9   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: Out 9m 1000m-W/Post. Out 6m Remainder. Sectional 612m. (Pent: 7).  

Dashing Duchess can push forward and contest the lead. DASHING DUCHESS (7) took an honest account of herself two back in the LR Andrew Ramsden in what has unsurprisingly proven to be a good form race. Showed plenty of fight last start when knuckling down to get the verdict at Swan Hill. Will be looking to offset the wide draw quickly and should take plenty of reeling in for her rivals. DIXIE WHISTLER (5) found plenty to fend of chases and score a well-earnt win. Boasts a strong record over the track and trip and is highly intriguing on the quick turnaround. Main danger. LAKE'S FOLLY (2) beat home Dixie Whistler when last at the races three weeks ago. Meets her slightly worse at the weights this time but stays over the winning track and trip. Have to take seriously. BLUSHING TYCOON (14) rarely finishes too far away from the action. Gets some handy weight off his back and has senior hoop in Tourneur piloting. Well placed to give this a good shake. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Dashing Duchess to win.
