GOING: S(5)

CAMERONS H HARDWARE BATEMANS BAY CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: True.  

Cracking tempo with Dirtballer and I Show Speed leading the way. WINNIE FORTUNE (12) consistent mare due for a change of luck. Ready for this trip third-up and will appreciate the firmer surface after holding on to secure second over 1000m at Nowra. Doesn't have to improve much to beat these on her home track. MR USHER (13) strengthened over the break and assess on the good Maiden win at Queanbeyan two-back. Drops in weight and maps to get the right run. DIRTBALLER (8) created a massive impression when defeating inferior opposition on debut with a slick on-pace win as fav over 1005m at the Sapphire Coast. Will have little trouble over this trip and can overcome the sticky gate. Leading contender. SHUTTERING (14) ran on late first-up with a respectable fourth over 1000m at Corowa. Better gate today and the extra distance can see her take a hand in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 12,13,8,14.
