GOING: G(4)

Corio Waste Management BM56 Handicap 1629m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 26)   Rail: Out 7m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.39)  

Plenty of pace from the outset with Sinister Sauce and Cable De Vega leading the charge. SINISTER SAUCE (8) won fresh up in this grade, and since then she has finished third in slightly tougher fields twice in a row. She carries the same weight as she did when winning at Traralgon, and should go close to winning this. MOVE THE TORANA (5) was an overdue maiden winner when resuming at Terang nearly 4 weeks ago, scoring by a head when charging home from well back. She has a better gate this time, and the extra 229m will also help her. Go again. CABLE DE VEGA (7) has been very well placed to win 2 of her last 3 starts in this grade, and she gets to stay in the same class. A 1.5kg claim will negate most of her weight rise, and from a good gate, she can continue on her winning way. INITIAL MOMENT (10) resumes from a spell and will be ready to rumble after having 3 solid jumpouts. Check the market moves, and CUSTOMER SERVICE (2) will strip fitter second up, and Payne stable needs to be always respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sinister Sauce can take this out.
