GOING: S(5)

SEVEN Class 5 Handicap 1350m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 24)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.70)  

Pace looks sure to be genuine with Hermanita and Treporti matching motors, closely followed by Beautantes. HERMANITA (5) grows a leg for jockey Fenlon who has four wins and five placings from 11 steers and again gets the benefit of her claim. Should push forward from the wide draw and will give backers a sight. TREPORTI (4) is a two-time winner over this distance range and gets some weight relief with Lang's claim. Top-three aspirations. OUTSMARTED (7) has won four of five overall and is racing with a lot of confidence. Hard to ignore. The well-related BEAUTANTES (1) (half to G1 winner Startantes) strips fitter second-up from the spell and may earn some minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hermanita to go back-to-back.
