GOING: S(6)

TEG TRADIES DAY OUT 29 AUGUST 2025 CG&E BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1100m

Track: Soft 6   Clouds (Max: 14)   Rail: +3m 1100m-W/Post; True Remainder.  

Exceed Perfection and Straand Beauty can be prominent. STRAAND BEAUTY (2) handy type who should have a few more wins to his record. Will appreciate the class drop after failing to go on with it when fifth over 1250m at Canterbury in BM72 grade. Since fitted with a sharp tick over trial win and the claim helps. Blinkers on and goes close. FLY SCOTTY FLY (5) progressive gelding drawn poorly again at his second run back. Showed a ton of grit from the outside gate when gripping on late to run second over this trip at Hawkesbury. Comes to hand quickly and looks close to another victory. THUNDERING SOUL (3) resumes after running some respectable races in Queensland. Fitted with the two trials and proven fresh. EXCEED PERFECTION (6) resumes a gelding after stretching out to the mile last prep. Fitted with two good trials and gets his chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Straand Beauty to score a well deserved victory.
