Turf Paradise Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming

CLASSIC ALPHIE (4) returned last time with a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1106m when he made late ground. Won't find this as tough so he is all set to open the account. HUNTING FOR GOLD (2) is a 12-start maiden who could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track (Dirt) after he was well back on straightening. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. PONDEROSA (6) was prominent at the corner and finished third last time over 1308m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 2.75 lengths. Nicely placed to go a couple better. COME HOME (3) was beaten 3 lengths into fourth over 1308m at this track last time out. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
