GOING: S(6)

Victor Harbor Motor Co Rating 0 - 56 Handicap 1200m

Track: Soft 6   Clear (Max: 16)   Rail: +2.5m W/Post - 1200m, True Remainder.  

Prince Kuro can work over from a wide alley to lead. PRINCE KURO (14) didn't give his rivals a sniff last start when leading pillar-to-post. Can cross quickly from the wide alley and will take running down if left alone. FULL COMMITMENT (13) was denied narrowly when resuming here less month. Strips fitter, though is drawn awfully. Will need a smart steer from out there. KISS AND KABOOM (10) resumes off some decent form, last seen when runner-up in Murray Bridge in January. Has a solid record at this distance and has performed well when fresh before. ARAMOSO (4) has form that can measure up, though he's another that will need some luck from a wide alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Prince Kuro to win.
