GOING: G(4)

BARRY WILLIAMS MEMORIAL LIGHTNING OPEN Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 21)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.01).  

Plenty of speed runners engaged including Kinjina and Queen Assassin. QUEEN ASSASSIN (2) led and improved again delivering an Open by 5.6L and then pulled up with an issue at the Sunshine Coast in the rich Bat Out Of Hell. She's been freshened since and trialled solidly. Wiggins is reunited on the speedy galloper and this is winnable. BOLD HUNTER (8) spiked his figures missing a whisker here in a 70 and that stacks up. Has to cross over from an awkward barrier but tumbles in weight. A solid each-way chance. CAPTAIN FOX (5) has been busting to win. Rates well on the Rockhampton effort two back and can make the finish again. MONTENEGRO MAN (1) resumes and is proven fresh. 4x winning rider Stanley is booked and that demands attention. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Queen Assassin.
