GOING: H(10)

AVON CITY FORD EASTER CUP 1600m

Track: GOOD     True  

Fellini should spear straight to the front of the small field. TUMUCH (3) was a game second at his last start in Listed level. Course proven. Class dropper. Good chance in this line up to win especially now this is down to a four horse field. MASTER MARKO (5) has run well in his last three starts. Multiple class dropper here. Quinella and trifecta must here now this is down to just four runners incredibly. FELLINI (7) is a multiple-class riser in this. Drops 5.5kg. Twice placed here. Obvious chance now in a four-horse field on the all weather here. MISS LAYLA (10) she is rising many grades here. Can claim down to 51kg. Four horse field helps her cause no end. Cannot be omitted from any of your multiples in this field. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tumuch and Master Marko are win wagers.
