GOING: G

TABTOUCH 4YO+ NR 30-65 FINAL MS PACE 2130m

Track: GOOD      

KINGSEAT (1) continued his impressive run of results when he drew wider and was forced to work but fought to miss narrowly at this circuit last week. That gave him three wins and two placings from his last six starts and he should get every chance from this draw. MARBEECHSAM (10) made it two wins in succession when he beat Kingseat and got the cash here last week. Drawn on the back row this time but scored from there two back. Major player. FRANKIE J HOLDEN (5) has won the last four times he has raced here, completing a winning hat trick in coming from this barrier to get home narrowly last time. Must respect. MEDIEVAL MAN (4) could be close to a win after seconds in his last two outings here.
