GOING: S(6)

JAMES ULTRA DRY & LIME QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Plate 1200m

Track: SOFT 6   Clouds (Max: 26)   Rail: +10m Entire Course..  

Just a moderate tempo headed by Urban Lad, Flashmaster and Sheza's Destiny. BALMORAL CASTLE (7) has been plying her trade in harder races down south and should appreciate the drop back in company here. Strips fitter second-up from the break and is sure to be up to the mark out of the astute Maher camp. Looks very hard to toss. ZARLA (10) is first-up but has been prepared for this with two solid trials and showed enough when last in work to suggest she'd be competitive in this contest. Hard to beat if back in good order. URBAN LAD (12) won a recent Doomben trial by a whopping seven lengths and Harley sticks in the saddle for race day. Expect a strong showing. ENTERPRISE GISELLE (8) is having her first run for the new stable and any market confidence must be noted. SPEEDY CROWN (5) best of the rest on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Balmoral Castle.
