GOING: G(4)

Brians Shed And Services Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Signal is expected to lead at a keen tempo. FLY ON BYE (2) can run well at each way odds. He was solid at Seymour last time out when second and has been racing consistently as a whole of late. He'll take some catching. NAVAL ACADEMY (6) is a lightly raced type who has been running well in some handy races. Should appreciate the rise to 1200m and he'll go close. OUR COUVER (4) resumes. He'll get over further in time but has the class to sprint well fresh. SIGNAL (1) is certainly up to winning this and can bounce back from a poor one last time. SHUT EYE (8) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fly On Bye each way.
