---|---|---|---|---|
The speedy Badgers Nuts should find the front with Seventies Hit and Fearless Thinking on his heels. MISHANI KINGDOM (4) did a good job first up and followed with a narrow defeat in a 62 at Warwick. Fitter again and Noel Callow is a key jockey switch for the apprentice. He has plenty up the sleeve and the longer sprint suits. MORITZ GIRL (5) was switched north by the Neasham barn and needed the run at Doomben first up. Won her only second up outing and kicking off at 1400m won't be an issue. Maps for a soft run and is right up to this. LORD LUKER (2) switched from an SA yard and also needed it at Doomben first up. Has an awkward barrier but performs second-up and quick improvement is anticipated. FEARLESS THINKING (8) switched barns and was a big CL1 winner first up as expected . She then raced on speed over a mile at Ipswich and folded up. Has the rail and the shorter trip will suit better. Fitter and in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Mishani Kingdom.
