GOING: G(4)

CONGRATULATIONS ADAM DURRANT, LEADING TRAINER 23/24 HANDICAP 1220m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 25)   Rail: Out 6m Entire.  

Raging Beauty should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. CATCH THE RED EYE (1) showed some decent pieces of form last preparation and resumed with a 1.7L defeat at Ascot. Has a handy 2kg claim and the longer sprint suits. First start here and fitter can make it a winning one. STEVIE'S MAY (6) resumed in a CL1 at Ascot and it was a solid effort. She has more to give but has to run out a strong 1200m. CJP stays aboard and from the inside gate will give her every chance. THE COLLECTOR (3) was plain here two back but the form each side of that reads well. Good enough at best and deserves consideration. SAFE HUSTLE (2) tries hard and will be around the mark again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Catch The Red Eye.
