GOING: H(10)

TOOHEYS NEW CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: HEAVY 10   Rain (Max: 11)   Rail: Out 5m 800m-400m. Out 3m Remainder; Cutaway Applies. (Pent: 6.2).  

Shreve will come out hard from the inside gate. FLYING THINKER (5) big improver at second race start when ploughing through the heavy (10) conditions for a slick victory over 1300m at Newcastle on June 15. Maps well again and can make it two-in-a-row. EQUIPAGE (3) Godolphin filly who looks close to another victory but will have her work cut out from the wide draw. Powered late from well back when third over 1250m at Canterbury on June 10. Look for her late. CLIMATE CONTROL (18) hard fit for this and game effort again when second over 1200m here on June 23. Gibbons keeps the ride and saves his best for this track. LITTLE BIT FLASH (12) drops sharply in weight with the 3kg claim after sticking on well in the going when fourth over 1200m at Wyong on June 6. This looks easier and has the numbers to figure prominently. SUGGESTED PLAY: Flying Thinker to win.
