RACE SEVEN
Starting fav at her return to the track for her 3YO campaign 2 starts back, CUT FROM ROCK (2) was working hard in the breeze and faded under the work. Learning from the experience, they released after finding the front last start and she was too slippery late to take the prize. This is a step-up, but she can look to repeat.
THE CRUISE MISSILE (6) was sent for a break after failing as the fav last start over the Redcliffe 2040m. That was his 5th start in Aus where he has started in red figures on 4 occasions. Returning 2 wins from those numbers, he opened the pipes with a smart trial and can challenge in this.
JUSTA DALE (9) looked to take then al the way last start from gate 1 but couldn’t see it out when he was nabbed up the passing lane. Trailing through early to find position, he has claims here.
MONTANA LAD (7) has no favours from the tough gate here but if able to find position cheaply can be attacking in the closing stages. A smart winner here 2 starts back, he can be in the mix.
SELECTIONS: CUT FROM ROCK (2), THE CRUISE MISSILE (6), JUSTA DALE (9), MONTANA LAD (7)
SUGGESTED BET: CUT FROM ROCK (2) to win
