GOING: G

HEATHER ADAMSON MR 100 HANDICAP 1160m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 16)    

Red Bomber, Sunset Riot and One Fell Swoop to match motors but there will be other pressure. BLIZZARD SNOW (9) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success over 1160m at this track four weeks ago, getting home by a long neck. Finds a tougher race but a big run is on the cards. ONE FELL SWOOP (3) was prominent from the outset when fourth over 1000m at this track last time out. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Best figures should see her run well. WARM WINTER NITE (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in second over 1000m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. PASSAGE OF POWER (5) turned in another moderate effort last start when 7 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
