Puller’s Plinian Can Win First Today

First race off at 12h50

Eight races are carded on the turf track at Hollywoodbets Greyville this afternoon.

Don’t forget about the free to play Hollywoodbets Punters Challenge and the first is due off at 12h50.

Hollywoodbets-sponsored trainer Garth Puller saddles Plinian in the first race and he should give punters a good start to the day.

The field has been reduced by the scratching of Bomber Stream.

He showed good speed over this distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville last time but was caught late by Seattle Ripper.

If suited to this course, he should find himself in the winner’s enclosure.

Licence To Thrill from the Mike Miller stable takes his place in the lucky last. He made the expected natural improvement when winning his last start over this distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville.

He moved up well and kept finding all the way to the line. The son of Twice Over takes on stronger, but he is a progressive type and should be up to the task at hand.

Please note that Craig Zackey will not be riding today.
