GOING: G

Carlton Draught Fillies & Mares BM58 Handicap 1207m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.25)  

From the wide alley Marilyn's Edge should cross and lead. Wide open race with plenty of win chances but ASMITA (3) has done little wrong including an impressive fresh-up maiden win. Fitter and will camp just off a good pace. Looks worth following up. FLITGROVE (6) was solid fresh then fourth and beaten only a length last time. Ready to win and should be in the finish. MARILYN'S EDGE (8) is coming off an eighth at Flemington last time when beaten 4.5 lengths. This far easier and no surprise to see her bounce back. AMORE LUNARE (2) resumes form a long break but has been fitted with a strong of jump-outs. Has plenty of ability and obviously primed for a big return. LUCKY DUCK (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 1200m at Echuca, beaten 8 lengths into 13th. This far easier and can turn things around. SUGGESTED PLAY: Follow in on Asmita.
