GOING: G

Ladbrokes Mega Multi Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 25)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.38)  

Good early pressure anticipated with a large representation of first starters. Plenty of first starters but a bit to work with from the raced brigade. SHAHAR (10) has raced twice and not far from the winner in two far richer contests. Trialling well for return and will find this easier. Expected to go close on the figures posted to date. ZUBBA STORM (5) is close to a win, having placed all three career runs so far. Has early pace to camp just off the lead and expected to go close again. TIJOLA (4) had one start over the winter and after getting back to the tail in the big field made good ground to finish fifth. Given a long spell and gelded since. Fitter for recent hit-outs and can return with a big run. ELLSWORTH (2) also in the mix from a low draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Shahar.
