GRANT BASTIAN CLASS 3 SHOWCASE HANDICAP 1200m Track: Soft 6 Rain (Max: 18) Rail: True. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of pace from Helluva Teen, Lease and Wild Sensation matching motors ahead of Beebee. WILD SENSATION (7) continued his strong form of late with a comprehensive all-the-way win over 1300m at Scone last start. Steps up from a Class 1 to a Class 3 but his ratings suggest he is up to the challenge. MISS UCHITEL (10) has been freshened up since fading to a midfield finish over 1550m at Murwillumbah five weeks ago. One of the better chances from a nice gate with no weight on her back. BOAMBEE BEACH (9) draws the car park but is a mare in form who cannot be overlooked. Has found the line with gusto to get up for second at her last two appearances, both over shorter trips. Finds the ideal scenario today. WAHINE GALAXY (14) returned after more than a year on the sideline with a respectable third at the Gold Coast last start. Not drawn the best but with a pinch of luck can sneak into the top three. SNEAKY RICH (13) is trained locally and has won two from two here. Going well this prep and must be considered. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wild Sensation to salute again.
