GOING: S(6)

MERVYN WILLIAMS Class 1 Handicap 1500m

Track: SOFT 6     Rail: True. (Pent: 6.09).  

Carrefour and New Maher can push forward early. GAELIC THUNDER (7) is another to shed the maiden tag last start and the extra furlong here looks ideal. Evans sticks in the saddle and looms as the main danger. The penny has dropped for SHOTGUN SIXTYFOUR (5) who has strung two wins together on the bounce. Gets 2kg off and it's hard to ignore mares in form. NEW MAHER (1) next a major player with the aid of the favourable draw while ALREADY BETTER (2) drops in grade from the city and has claims off a maiden win two starts back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gaelic Thunder to salute.
