GOING: S(5)

GIBSON ARCHITECTS Class 2 Handicap 1350m

Track: SOFT5   Clear (Max: 20)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 5.70)  

Lumens Lenny to take charge ahead of Detrimental at a good tempo. DETRIMENTAL (1) is a former Kiwi who was tried at Stakes level at Eagle Farm on a 28-day turnaround and then wasn't far away here in a CL3. The colt will be fitter and is still well shy of his NZ best. Jones' booking suggests we'll see sharp improvement. LUMENS LENNY (3) is a leader who went close here and then was better again placing second in a 70 at Doomben. He will jump and run from a low gate and can go one better. ARAMINTA (9) resumed at Doomben in better grade and it was a good effort after settling rearward. She's run well second up and has plenty up her sleeve. Keep safe. CALVARY (8) hasn't done a lot in his two runs back but his best form would have him in the finish. Has a handy gate and 2kg claim and he can go better. Goes in at a price. SUGGESTED PLAY: Detrimental rates well.
