GOING: G

RIDING HIGH TOGETHER 1600M HANDICAP 1600m

Track: GOOD      

Solid tempo likely with Gallant Epoch, Special Hedge and Viva Graciousness prominent. MR COOL (1) is a lightly raced gelding by Maurice up to the mile for the first time. He gets the Winkers on today following a solid effort last start over 1400m and Atzeni now takes the ride. Likely to be back in the run, but if he can improve as expected, he can return to winning ways. SPECIAL HEDGE (13) disappointed last start when slowly away and never getting into the race over 1400m. Back up to the mile today where he was impressive in a strong form race two back. Has the speed to offset the wide draw and can play a major role. SOARING BRONCO (8) is better than he showed last start at Happy Valley and was in god touch prior. Avdulla now hops in the saddle and he was a track and trip winner back in march. Needs some luck from the alley but can play a leading role. HAPPY UNIVERSE (11) bounced back last start and won't be far away again from a favourable barrier.
