GOING:

Hollywoodbets BRIGHT FUTURE MIDDLE STAKES 1000m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 20)    

Several of these have terrific gate speed so the pressure will be on from the outset. MISS MARGUERITE (10) received a check at the start last time and ran on well to finish fourth. She has won twice and finished third twice from six starts over this distance. She is having her peak run today and will be cherry-ripe. She is likely to be settled near the rear of the field and will be storming home late. BLUE HOLLY (8) opened this prep last start with a second over 1000m at Fairview. Has a good record at this distance with three wins from nine starts. Best form puts her right in this. LADY LOOK ALIKE (7) returned from a spell last start and finished sixth over 1250m at this track. Likely improver with strong each-way prospects. BOMBER GIRL (3) hasn't really produced this prep but in this line-up can place. Include in exotic bets for value.
