GOING:

RACING240 CLASSIFIED STAKES 1900m

Track: STANDARD      

Solid tempo with Henry's Hedge leading from Blackberry Breeze and Princess Of Bayeux. BLACKBERRY BREEZE (3) has been about the mark of late with a string of minors including last start when second over 1600m at this track. Useful type who gets his chance. PRINCESS OF BAYEUX (4) has switched yards since finishing seventh five weeks ago over 1800m at Kenilworth. Shapes well and a bold showing is expected with leading rider going aboard. DOWNING SEVEN (2) improved last start to finish second over 1900m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SLAINTE MHATH (1) was beaten 11 lengths into eighth over 2000m at this track six-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
