GOING: N

GARRARDS- SERVICE WITH INTEGRITY 4YO+ MS PACE 1730m

Track: GOOD      

GIVE ME JOY (1) made a nice return at her latest appearance a week ago, finishing 2 metres away in second over 2130m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position and rates a big chance in a similar assignment. WELLOILED (2) broke last start and finished a distant seventh over 2130m here when making her first appearance. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw and only needs to get things right to be in contention. ALTAR (4) has trialled three times since his last run so expect he is forward enough to stake a strong claim fresh from a layoff. Keep safe. GALIFIANAKIS (3) was beaten 12 metres on debut last start over 2130m at this circuit. Will be better for that experience and is capable of a lot more this time around.
