BOOK THE MARQUEE/DECK FOR YOUR PARTY BENCHMARK 60 Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 4     Rail: +2m 600m-300m; True Remainder. (Pent: 5.27)  

Strong tempo with I Promise You and Man In The Mirror leading from Mishani Gangster and Lone Force. MISHANI GANGSTER (3) hasn't been too far away at the past couple and should find this task a touch easier. Gets some weight relief with the 2kg claim and maps well from gate five. Sure to be right there when the judge calls a halt. QUEST OF QUESTS (11) has a solid record over this distance range with two wins and four seconds from ten starts. Can play a major role in the finish. HOTFOOT PERFORMER (5) loves it here on his home surface with two wins and four placings from just eight spins. Capable of another strong showing. I PROMISE YOU (1) goes well for hoop Lowe who has three wins and two placings from just five steers. Has to be included. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 3,11,5,1.
