#destinationcaperacing CLASS 4 1400m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 21) |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Strong early tempo with Touchdown, In The Bag and Mont Loisir leading the way. STEADFAST (4) won a good race in his last start here over this trip. The manner in which he quickened up and drew off in the closing stages was very encouraging. He meets a similar line-up this afternoon and can repeat the dose. MONT LOISIR (3) was an easy winner when shedding his maiden tag here over this trip. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. He rises in class but should be up to the task at hand. CARRIACOU (6) is better than his last start over 1600m. If finding the form of his penultimate run in Class 3 Company, he should be involved at the finish. Each way value. DRAGONFLY (7) was a tad disappointing in his last start over 1100m. His penultimate run when third over 1200m catches the eye. He won his maiden over this distance and if putting his best hoof forward, he should have a say in the outcome of this contest at a nice each-way price.
