---|---|---|---|---|
No designated leader. Most of these like to sit back but with the easier tempo at a mile could see a few sit closer than normal. The Informer may be forced to go forward from the poor gate. FREEDOM'S LIGHT is fitter for two run snack and put the writing on the wall over a mile latest when beaten a head. Further improved and will be hard to hold out. ARTHURIAN resumed with a fast finishing third over seven furlongs and looks well placed here. Drawn for a soft run and will be winding up strongly late. THE INFORMER has placed at last two and looks ready to win here but has to overcome the wide gate. Likely to go forward. AFFRONTED has been thereabouts and looks an each way chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Freedom's Light off the last start peak.
