5:05am - TAB VENUE MODE HANDICAP | 1800m | | i

No pace on paper in this 1800m race, FRENZIED possibly the one that tries to take it up this time, it's hard to predict the tempo. AUSTRIA comes off a strong 2nd and sets the benchmark for others to beat with a poor wining record. BOOMTOWN RAT slightly unlucky last start and is right in the mix too. The class runner in the field is PUMPKIN PIE, who drops back from Saturday grade and tries out 1800m for the first time, a mare that has been settling better and could get the distance with a nice ride. MOUNTAIN BREATH was fine in a quiet jump-out a couple of months ago and is a watch in the yard. [FORM GUIDE only]
