PINJARRA SCARPSIDE   03 Apr 2025
 
GOING: G(4)

ANZAC DAY 25TH APRIL 2025 RACING HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: +3m Entire.  

Good tempo anticipated with Something Royal and Safekeeper leading the way. CHOP SUEY (3) is drawn nicely for the straight course, but whether he can hold a position is the question. He's racing in good order, though, and he's right there on recent figures. Wouldn't surprise to see him win back to 1000m. ON THE FULL (5) resumes today without a trial but gets the blinkers on. He's a two-time winner fresh, and Carbery's booking is a good sign. Can be right there at the finish. FAMOUS DREAM (8) is better than she showed at the end of last campaign and all the form from her starts last campaign worked out well. Can make an impression. SAFEKEEPER (9) will find this easier than her past couple and is not to be discounted. SUGGESTED PLAY: Chop Suey goes on top.
