GOING: G(4)

VILLAGE ROADSHOW THEME PARKS Maiden Plate 1800m

Track: GOOD3   Clear (Max: 24)   Rail: Out 3m 800m-W/Post; True Remainder. (Pent: 4.4).  

Strong early pace from Dawn Party and Pride Of Passion with Fine And Rare on their heels. AUTUMN SONG (1) was prominent at the bend but lacked a finishing dash beaten into third at Ipswich over a mile. He started a short-priced favourite and will be fully fit today. Maps well and the extra meters shouldn't bother. Placed to advantage and will prove hard to beat. VIKING BLOOD (9) has been nudged out his last two starts both over a mile. The 21800m should be ideal but he has the outside gate to contend with. DULVERTON CHARM (3) didn't enjoy the poly surface last time and had been racing in stronger Maidens prior. 1800m on the turf will suit better and his form last preparation would be easily good enough. DAWN PARTY (2) has had plenty of chances but has some nice pieces of form and goes in at a price. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Autumn Song.
