GOING: G(4)

GORDON'S GIN RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1670m

Track: GOOD4   Clouds (Max: 28)   Rail: Out 1m Entire. (Pent: 5.4).  

Solid pace set by Force Me. Tough. CHANCE WITH WOLVES (1) won a 62 here three back and then was outgraded at Doomben before a better effort at the Sunshine Coast. A senior hoop goes aboard for the first time this campaign signalling intent. Finds the right race. QUICK SHOT (12) found more like her best beaten a whisker in a CL2 at Gatton over this trip. Peaks now and has the early speed to position forward. BRINGME (4) resumed over 1500m at Warwick and was beaten a nose. Draws out but has more to give and will be hitting the line. SATASHI (10) peaks and finally draws a decent barrier. Her form early doors would see her in the finish. YUKANUMA (5) also rates well enough to consider. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Chance With Wolves.
