GOING: H(8)

MURWILLUMBAH SERVICES CLUB CLASS 2 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: HEAVY 10   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: True.  

Expecting Powerful Eagle to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. SAXINOUE (3) was a heavy track winner here last year and resumes after taking on much better company before a break. Sure to run a big race fresh. MONARCH EXPRESS (5) will be fitter for one run back at Grafton where he hit the line nicely into fifth place. Will be an improver and has to be respected. POWERFUL EAGLE (1) is a consistent type resuming and while he's better over a bit further he's had a couple of trials and could sprint well fresh. PRIVATE TENDER (11) and CLUBHOUSE (4) are worth including in the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Saxinoue to win.
