GOING: S

Sportsbet Same Race Multi Handicap 1700m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 11)   Rail: Out 12m Entire Circuit.  

Strong early tempo from Falcon Of Malta spearing over from an outside gate, with Binding also pushing up. ANGRY SKIES (6) is racing well, beaten narrowly at Murray Bridge last time out. Drawn awkwardly but should be in the finish. LORDSHIP (1) is interesting, making his Australian debut. Formerly with William Haggas, he's a fairly promising stayer. This trip will be short of his best but watch the market for a lead. FALCON OF MALTA (2) lugged 62.5kg to victory at Bendigo last time out and can win again. AWASH (14) looks nicely placed getting in with 53.5kg. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Angry Skies.
