GOING: H(10)

WEST COAST SPONSORED BY WAIREPO HEREFORDS 1600m

Track: HEAVY 10     Out 6m  

Solid tempo with Bay Express leading from Benefactor and Jack Morrison. BELLADONNA LILY (8) is a course-proven mare. Close up two starts ago and that run is a true guide. Her best is well up to winning this. She loves wet tracks too. RAGAMUFFIN (6) he has won third up before. Also has been course placed as well. Quinella and trifecta must in this field. LEMAITRE (7) is a class riser here. Drawn out. Claims down to 54kg and must be included everywhere. THE SCUNNER (1) was poor at his last start. Ran okay in all three runs prior this time in. Ace draw. Definite chance for your combinations. BAY EXPRESS (4) he resumes here. Live on a hattrick. Class riser. He can handle all types of footing. Impossible to overlook in this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Belladonna Lily and Ragamuffin are win wagers.
