Valmont Irrigation Mdn 1200m Track: GOOD 4 Mostly Clear Rail: Rail is at the inside position. |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Speed anticipated from The Diary, Chebelleza, Bring More Speed and Asian Pearl. GENERAL HUSSON has been solid at Ascot both runs this campaign and looks ready to fire. Should sit handier off the better gate today and gets the tongue tie first time. TONKATUFF resumes off a good Belmont trial and was last seen in Stakes grade. Draws well and has the ratings to win this if the market indicates his readiness. THE DIARY has improved both runs and will be fitter again. Looks well in the mix. STRATOSPHILLY resumes off a Lark Hill trial win and can come back improved.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Looking to play both General Husson and Tonkatuff.
