GOING: G

Carlton Draught BM58 Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD 3   Clouds (Max: 30)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.50)  

Strong tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Elite Party and Gracie's Rain. Loads of winning chances. GRACIE'S RAIN (2) has been super honest in tougher grade recently, placing in a BM70 two back then placing again in a BM64 last time. Big weight here but has the claim and is back in grade. Goes close. INNOCENT ENUFF (8) was prominent on the corner and battled on well to finish third last start over 1000m at Werribee, beaten 0.6 lengths. Adam McCabe is a key engagement with a good record aboard. Has her share of talent and will take catching. CONGRATSALOT (9) has run on well to finish runner-up at both runs this time in. At his top now and is a third-up winner. Should be in the finish again. SNAPPY TYCOON (5) was runner-up in a BM64 last time when on speed and comes back a notch. Tricky gate but will give a sight. CATALINA BLACK CAT (7) was scratched recently saved for this and has placed at both runs this time in. Worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Gracie's Rain.
