GOING: H(10)

GREAT NORTHERN OPEN Handicap 1200m

Track: Heavy 10   Rain (Max: 19)   Rail: +2.5m Entire.  

Plenty of pressure on from the outset. ROLL UP (7) saves his best form for this circuit with four wins and a placing from just five starts and should be ready to peak now third-up from the spell. Looks the one they all have to run down. REJOICED (4) is a bit of a hit-or-miss type but is yet to miss a drum in four outings here and can play a role if he brings his A-game. AZZAREACH (5) has two wins and two placings from six starts over this distance range and may fill the frame with any luck in running. OVIDIUS (2) next best from the inside alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Roll Up to win.
