GOING: G(4)

TABTOUCH SCAN MY BET HANDICAP 1720m

Track: GOOD 3     Rail: True.  

A small field that lacks a pacemaker. SIDE SHOW (4) won two back over the mile at Belmont before a disappointing run last start at Ascot. This is much easier than what he faced last start and this looks to set up beautifully for him. Can bounce back to winning ways in what looks a suitable race. HOLDOUT (1) was only 3.7L at this course and distance 11 days ago and rates well on the back of that effort. He's well weighted after the claim of Cheung and he can make his presence felt. HEAPS OF MOOLAH (7) won impressively here two back before a 1.9L defeat most recently. Back to the scene of the crime now, and he can put his best foot forward. SUGGESTED PLAY: Side Show goes on top.
