GARRARDS HORSE & HOUND UP TO NR70 PACE 2040m

Track: GOOD      

MIGHTY JOLT (1) had a tough draw when fourth last time at Marburg and hadn't been too far away in his previous outing. He should enjoy the favours from the inside draw. SOME CHEVRON (2) is back from a let-up but has been kept up to the mark with a nice trial and goes well when on the fresh side, kicking off this campaign with a Penrith win. He can measure right up from the good draw. IN EXCESS (3) has taken on some good opposition recently but he is suited returning to a venue where he has won two of three attempts and draws well. VINSANITY (6) is another that should enjoy coming back to this circuit having won three of five starts here.

Comes here second-up after five-and-a-half weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Sr1) over 2040m at this track beaten 75 m by Risk Taker (2:29.20) in NR up to 70 on May 21 at $151. Cannot enthuse in this tough race.
