GOING: S(6)

DECISE ELECTRICAL AND CONTROL 1300m

Track: SOFT 6     True  

There looks to be ample pace and pressure in this field over 1300m. LORD DONOVAN (3) has raced well in all his runs this time in. Win chance here no matter the footing drawn well. SIR STERLING (1) is a dual course winner. Winning rider atop. Has won on dry and wet. INSATIABLE (6) course placed. Has gone better than it seems this time in. Chance. SLIPPER ISLAND (10) is a class riser. Wide gate. Course placed. PENNSYLVANIA (7) was a trial winner earlier this month. Better than she has shown so far this time in. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lord Donovan is a win wager.
