---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of early pace on show, particularly from Run For Me, Torrone and Act Of Power. RUN FOR ME (1) resumes from a spell. He finished second in his only attempt over this course band distance. Luyolo Mxothwa is in the saddle and fresh-up he should prove hard to beat. PORTCULLIS (4) ran a fair race in his last start over this distance on the turf when finishing third of 13. With luck in the running he can finish in the placings. MY TRUE LOVE (9) is better than her last two starts would suggest. Looks well placed to return to form. MAXIGIRL (7) could only manage to finish fourth of seven over 1400m at this track. Has place claims.
