GOING: G

RIDING HIGH TOGETHER 1400M HANDICAP 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Run Run Timing paving the way. SUPER INFINITY (3) steps out in trip for the first time today which seems ideal for this 3YO judging by his racing pattern. Purton hops off, but Bowman takes the ride and the softer barrier should see him settle much closer now. Can improve sharply and notch up his maiden victory. GOLDEN BULL (4) is somehow still a maiden after 17 starts after making his presence felt a number of times in his short career. His recent trial was only fair, but he's been placed when fresh in the past and his best form would see him in the thick of the finish. FIGHTING MACHINE (2) has been given an easy trial since his 3.5L defeat over 1650m at Happy Valley 26 days ago and returns to the scene of his maiden victory. Purton opts to stick with this galloper and dropping back in trip may hold the key. Sure to put his best foot forward. RUN RUN TIMING (1) showed good signs last start and can repeat that effort with the aid of a good draw.
