GOING: S

RACING240 MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 11)    

Tricky one to map with a few first starters but over this trip there is certain to be plenty of early pressure. I'LL SLIP AWAY (7) wasn't fancied on debut but ran above expectations with a three length fifth over this track and trip. Will have come on with that run now under the belt and can improve enough to take this out. HELEN'S LEGACY (6) was a solid third here when facing the starter for the first time and is sure to have taken benefit from that outing. Will prove tough to hold out. The well-bred and well-related STRAWBERRY LIGHT (8) is at the races for the first time and can run a race from the inside alley. CHILILABOMBWE (3) is another on debut and a watch on betting is advised. ST KITTS (2) is the most experienced galloper in the field and can earn some minor money.
