---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting Runwiththetide to take up the running with Gin A Tonic and Elected close at hand. MISTER BIANCO (1) goes well for rider Rodd who has two wins and two placings from just six steers and will be high on confidence following that last-start Gold Coast victory. Has placed two from two around this circuit and should give backers a sight again. GIN A TONIC (3) has a handy record over this six-furlong journey with three wins and two placings from seven starts and gets some weight relief with the 1.5kg claim. Rates a serious contender. IMPENDOR (6) has placed four from five at this course and is usually thereabouts. In the mix. BRAVELY (8) strips fitter third-up from the break and can trouble the judge with luck in running. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 1,3,6,8.
