GOING: H(9)

Ladbroke It! BM64 Handicap 1415m

Track: HVY9   Rain (Max: 12)   Rail: Out 4m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.82).  

From the inside gate Rackemann has enough dash to hold the lead, joined by London Bell who won't give it up easily. RACKEMANN (1) is a consistent type who was well-supported last start and scored narrowly at Ballarat last start as an even-money favourite. Finds another winnable race here and is open to further improvement. Rates highly. SOCIALLY SASSY (11) won first up at Mornington before tackling a stronger race at Sandown Hillside, not disgraced when beaten 4.5 lengths by a subsequent Saturday winner. That form should hold up. REPRISAL (2) was just fair last time at Mornington having won there prior. Should be thereabouts here. DO I (6) was okay first up here and will strip fitter with each-way claims. SALCHOW (8) will be hard to hold out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rackemann to win.
