GOING: G(4)

SPUDSHED KALGOORLIE HANDICAP 1200m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 28)   Rail: True. (Pent: 6.40)  

Bundaberg and Cheryl's Shout can be prominent. BUNDABERG (5) led and was quickly back on track beaten less than 2L at Belmont. He raced forward again at Bunbury following when narrowly missing as favourite. That's good form and Brad Parnham sticks and will give him every chance. SNIPER'S SON (2) has been knocking on the door and will find this more suitable than Belmont at Northam. Chris Parnham takes over from Brad, and he should be right in it. LAVISH CHARM (3) led here first-up and belted the Maidens by 4.5L. He was heavily bet again and Fiore takes over from Pike. Tougher, but he has more upside and has to be considered. JUST SUBLIME (8) resumes and raced well in his initial preparation. Has the rail and is a betting watch. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Bundaberg.
