GOING: S

CHAMPAGNE SYNDICATE OPEN MAIDEN 1950m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 17)    

Lord Quinn, French Trip and State Capitol will be ridden positively out of their low gates so the pace will be genuine. KWITE A KING (4) resumes from a spell having finished third in his last three starts. The manner in which he finishes off his races suggests that he will relish the rise to 1950m. If not in need of this run he should prove hard to beat. JACK IN THE GREEN (8) finished second of nine here over 1800m last start but may have cost himself winning as he hung over the final 400m. He should have no issues with the rise to 1950m and if keeping on a straight line, he can go one place better. AMANCIO (9) showed improvement when finishing second of 13 over 1600m last time out. He is having his peak run and should like the extra 200m on offer. With a bit of luck from his wide draw of nine he should be figuring in the finish. GOLDEN GREY (7) has been in the money three times including last time out when third of 13 over 1600m at this track when sent out at long odds. Has recorded three top-three finishes from eight runs at this track and is a must include in exotic bets.
