GOING: G(3)

Dallas Rintoule Memorial 0-62 Handicap 1100m

Track: GOOD 3   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.48)  

Solid tempo with Shimshalar to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. TANGOETTE (6) capped a promising start to the campaign with a strong win over 1000m at Warracknabeal last time where she powered through the line. Building a strong bond with Linda Meech who is aboard again. Tough to hold out over the extra 100m today. THE KILL CLUB (5) started favourite but after showing pace tired late when resuming over today's journey at Hamilton recently. Has a solid second-up record so don't sack her after one mediocre run. OUR LITTLE STAR (4) recorded a dominant all-the-way win at Balaklava last time. Needed that confidence booster - each-way hope. SIMPLY EXCELS (2) returns from a lay-off. Recent jump-out winner at Ararat. Opened last campaign with a second at Doomben over 1200m. Goes well first-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 6,5,4,2.
