GOING: G(4)

Woolshed Inn Benchmark 66 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: True.  

Duke Of Anjou can work over from a wide alley to lead. FOURTH POWER (1) hasn't missed a beat this campaign, scoring in all three starts. Not a great deal tougher this time and can win again. CHILL WITH TEEJAY (4) doesn't salute out of turn but is a handy enough sprinter on his day. Loves it over this journey and is well-placed to give this a mighty shake. LASTAR (8) held a narrow lean in the lane but ran out of steam late last time out. Drops back to a preferred trip and is among the key players. SO YOU CAN (11) resumes and looks best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Fourth Power to win again.
1 5x111 FOURTH POWER
