Kembla Grange Race 1 - Skin Revival Super Mdn Plate
BELLA MONTAGNA (5) was group placed in NZ and resumes for a new camp off two trials. In the on pace role looks hard to beat. BANXI (1) has used mixed tactics in two recent runs but finds a much kinder draw. Can find best form in this line-up. CHIEF OF STAFF (3) drops back in trip but has been thereabouts in all three outings. Kind draw a bonus. COVERT THINKING (6) relished the added trip to improve sharply second up. In-form hoop rides and peaks now. REVERBERATES (9) showed improvement last start. Place chance.
