GOING: G

FLIPP TRANSPORT 1400m

Track: GOOD     Out 6m  

Pace looks strong with Super Gold pushing forward from out wide along with Charlotte's Way in closer. GREAT ESCAPE (4) is very much an in form runner in this field. She can handle dry and wet ground tellingly. The mare is a win chance here. MOON ROCKET (1) he is racing much better than it reads so far this time in. Drawn well. Quinella and trifecta must here without any doubt. CHARLOTTE'S WAY (3) has been course placed before. Can handle dry and wet ground too. Trifecta and first four chance in this particular line up. LINARA (6) was better at his last start. Well drawn here too. He is a chance to be in trifecta and first four. VICTORTHEINFLICTOR (13) he has been twice trialled so he is ready to resume. Ace draw. Can handle dry and wet. SUGGESTED PLAY: Great Escape and Moon Rocket are win wagers.
