GOING: G

Sportsbet Fast Form Rating 0 - 58 Handicap 1600m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: Out 7m 1200m Chute. Out 10m Remainder. (Pent: 5.5).  

Good early pressure for top spot with Limbering or Blue Special likely to take up the running. CHARM SLINGA (6) is going better than his form suggests this campaign. Found the line nicely in town at his last two starts despite not threatening the winner. Perfectly placed to play a major role. MR TRAFFICANTI (1) made a mess of them here three back in a similar grade. Not as effective in his last two when tackling city grade but is sure to play a more prominent role this time. Holder reunites and is drawn to get all the favours. Main danger. BLIXTEN (2) made light work of his rivals here last start. Slightly tougher this time and isn't drawn as kind but warrants respect. BLUE SPECIAL (3) was too bad to be true last start when always well back. On the short turnaround and is drawn much kinder with Toeroek sticking. Can bounce back sharply. THE ICE CUTTER (10) strips fitter second-up after narrowly missing at Strathalbyn. Warrants consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Charm Slinga gets the nod.
