RACING240 FOR RACING. FOR YOU MR 76 HANDICAP 2400m

Track: GOOD      

A strong pace on the cards with Downing Seven, Light Without and Juan Carlos likely to roll along early. JUAN CARLOS (3) was an easy winner of his last start over this course and distance. He is in a good space and can follow up. EXHALE (6) ran a fair race over 1600m on the polytrack last time. The son of Erupt will be right at home over 2400m and with Richard Fourie back in the saddle can figure in the finish. HAROLD THE DUKE (8) was a narrow winner two starts back at Fairview All Weather then finished second of nine last time at Fairview All Weather. Is racing well this prep, recording two wins and three placings from nine starts. Should be figuring in the finish. NOTHINGELSEMATTERS (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third of 11 over 2400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can place.
