---|---|---|---|---|
Sizzling pace from Kev's Girl, De Poet and Fill A Promise locking horns ahead of Gogmagog and Ride The River. GLORIOSO (7) handy mare with the upside to go on with it this prep. Resumes after running on late when a gritty second over 1100m at Hawkesbury on November 28. Given the two soft trials and look for her charging late with Nock's 2kg claim. GOGMAGOG (8) in career best form and has a real liking for the Wyong circuit. Was attempting to take it three-in-a-row when a fighting third over 1000m at this track in the heavy (8) going. Gets the gun run again with the senior rider engaged. OAKFIELD BADGER (2) anchored with the 61kg first up when a tenacious second over this course and distance. Will go back from the draw and charge late. RIDE THE RIVER (10) hard fit for this and a win looks imminent. Kept finding on the line when a close second over 900m at Newcastle. Has the speed to get cover from the gate and take a hand in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Glorioso each way.
