GOING: G(4)

C.EX COMMUNITY CREW SLEEP OUT CG&E BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1050m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: True.  

Lord Seymour is expected to lead at a strong tempo. THEIR FINEST HOUR (6) scored impressively when resuming from a spell last time at Coffs Harbour. Will be better for that latest run and he looks hard to stop again. BOOM BREAK (2) also scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by a head over this track and trip. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from six runs. Have to take seriously. LORD SEYMOUR (8) made progress last time out when chasing Their Finest Hour into second. Meets the winner 2.5kgs this time and should be at his top fourth-up. Chance to turn the tables. BRAZEN BRANDO (9) is ticking along nicely and has enough speed to offset the tricky draw. Not dismissing the veteran. SUGGESTED PLAY: Their Finest Hour to win again.
