GOING: H(10)

BARNES OYSTERS / RIVERSIDE RENTALS HANDICAP 1200m

Track: HEAVY     Out 4m  

The race pace here looks not too bad no matter the footing. NIGHT RAIDER (1) was a good run at his last start. Wet tracker overall. Well drawn again today and a win chance for sure. LIPA MALA (13) has been placed in her last two runs and one of them came right here on Heavy ground. Top tier must in this field. EARL OF ORKNEY (3) is course proven. He has run well in last three runs in particular. Trifecta and first four chance for sure. GRAVITY (4) is well drawn today for once. Not out of this no matter the footing presented so must be included. BALZANO (7) was backed fresh up and flopped. Has placed second up. Drawn to be a chance. Price will be better too. SUGGESTED PLAY: Night Raider is a win wager.
