GOING: G

DEAUVILLE HANDICAP 1650m Track: GOOD
Yellowfin has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. SIMPLY MAVERICK (4) just missed over this track and trip last time out when getting a long way back. Purton remains in the saddle today though and with more luck going his way he can go one better. Loves this track and trip and appears the one to beat. GALAXY WITNESS (1) is better than he showed last time out when in tougher company and gets Bowman in the saddle as he drops in grade. Should appreciate the easier company and he should get every chance from a favourable alley. Wouldn't surprise to see him end his winning drought. YELLOWFIN (3) brings different form into this from the All Weather but his figures stack up nicely. Has good early speed and draws nicely for Hewitson. Lively candidate getting back onto the turf. FALLON (5) is a niggle with his racing pattern but he's shown he has plenty of ability. Worth including.
