HAPPY 80TH BIRTHDAY BOBBY MCPHERSON HANDICAP 1300m Track: SOFT 6 Rain (Max: 18) Rail: True. |

---|---|---|---|---|
King Adviso and Savage One possess good early speed. SPECTACULAR PARK (12) settled back at this track last week but was just too good in the end, winning by 0.7L in a strong performance. The inside barrier may see him settle closer this time around and while this is tougher, his figures suggest he's right up to this grade. Wouldn't surprise to see him win again. SUPERNATURAL (8) can leave herself with too much to do, which is what happened here last start. That's the query again from a wide gate, but Pike remains in the saddle and with some luck, she can feature once more. DESERT NYMPH (1) boasts a strong third-up record and can be in the finish. KING ADVISO (14) won first-up last start here after failing to show much in maiden preparation. One for consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Spectacular Park can repeat the dose.
