GOING: S(5)

Ladbrokes SRM in Multis C1 Hcp 1200m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 13)   Rail: True. (Pent: 4.73)  

Solid tempo with Rainbow Alley possessing enough dash to find the front. KENSINGTON DIVA (4) resumes and is proven fresh. She owns two trial wins and is up this. The 2kg claim is handy, but she will need some luck from an outside barrier. MAGIC MOGUL (1) is a former Victorian who comes back to the turf bringing two threatening efforts on the synthetic for the Trinder stable. He has more to give and maps to get every chance. SWANNY DEE (2) is a Victorian who'd be right in the finish if he found his best. He gives away starts but is in a canny barn and is worth keeping safe. BUNKER BOB (10) is third-up and on the fresh side is worth some consideration as is CAPTAIN TAZ (5). SUGGESTED PLAY: Kensington Diva if the betting suggests stable confidence.
