GOING: S(7)

Sundown Signs 0 - 55 Handicap 1400m

Track: SOFT 7     Rail: +2m 600m-300m; True Remainder.  

Genuine pace with Parues taking up the running ahead of Yeah Copy and Martini Dancer. PARUES (2) has a handy record over this seven-furlong trip with a win and five placings from 12 attempts and will be rock-hard fit for this. Has a wide draw to overcome but will still prove hard to hold out. YEAH COPY (6) has placed over this course and distance and will find this easier than recent metropolitan efforts. Can find the winners' stall. AZUKI (1) has put back-to-back victories together and is racing with a lot of confidence of late. Cannot be underestimated. The well-related MY TURN ASTERN (12) (half to 2xG1 winner and stallion Brazen Beau) put in a much improved performance here at the latest outing and doesn't need to improve much further to be prominent. NEWMARKET MISS (9) should be hitting the line with gusto while fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 2,6,1,12.
