GOING: G(4)

Sportsbet Same Race Multi Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

A strong gallop is likely with Nation's Call and Bigolino taking up the running, closely attended by Red Phantom and Hiyaam Proud. SUNSHINEINMYPOCKET (10) is going well and just needs the right race shape from a tough draw to be winning this. Got back onto a dry track at Bendigo and ran on strongly for second up the inside to Marble Nine which is solid form. Still on the up but the map is tricky. HUGHES (7) has won his past two in BM70 company and is hard to knock despite rising in grade slightly. He's drawn somewhat wide but does have some early speed to try and slot in. RED PHANTOM (4) is in fine form, just finding one better at his past couple since a strong win in the Echuca Cup. Can either lead or sit in the box seat and that could well prove the difference. HIYAAM PROUD (14) resumes. He's a promising type who ran some good races last time in and profiles like one that can measure up here. CARBONADOS (12) can mix his form but has claims on best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sunshineinmypocket on top.
