Water: Irrigation: 10mm last 24hrs, 26mm last 7 days. Rainfall: Nil last 24 hrs, 20mm last 7 days.
Rail position and why: 5mts from the 1000m to the winning post, 2mts for the 1200m chute and true remainder. Allowing first 5mts to recover from the New Years day meeting.
Last time we raced here: New Years day - 1/1/24
How it played last time: 5 x winners led or on pace, 2 x settled midfield, 1 x settled at rear. 5 x winners no wider than 3 wide in straight, 1 x middle, 2 x down outside
Verdict: 5mts is a good rail position at the moment. On pace seems to be an advantage at the moment although winners can come from behind with pace on in the race. Track walks fairly even with good grass cover.
