GOING: H(8)

VERNON & VAZEY 0800 TRUCK PARTS 1400m

Track: HEAVY 8     True  

Plenty of pressure primarily from Contemplation Bay, Candycane and Kikimora. CANDYCANE (3) is in stupendous form and has been for a while too. Course placed. Handles it dry and wet too. Logical winner of this. KIKIMORA (1) has a super course record. Has won on dry and wet footing as well. Is a quinella and trifecta chance here for certain. KABUGEE (2) was a good winner at last start in this grade. He has too won on dry and wet track conditions. Must include everywhere you can in this. CONTEMPLATION BAY (8) won very easily fresh up in this grade. Up 2.5kg but she can cope without a doubt. Impossible to leave her out. MAZZUCATO (7) is an improver on fresh up run. Has won second up. Proven on dry and wet. SUGGESTED PLAY: Candycane is a win wager.
