I SEE RED SYNDICATE MAIDEN STEEPLECHASE 4000m Track: HEAVY 10 Out 4m |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
The race pace looks ordinary in this weak Maiden Steeplechase field. DEVOTED (1) is a definite winning here chance. Placed in last two Steeplechase runs albeit last start was a very distant third. Will be very short here indeed. KENTUCKY BOY (3) scored two back in a Mdn Hdl (3000m) at Wanganui then was less effective last time when he finished sixth in an Opn Hdl (2800m) at Hawera, beaten 9 lengths. Two runs last year as a Steeplechaser. Stronger now. Should be the quinella. PEERLESS WARRIOR (5) is not totally out of this as bar the top two picks the rest of this field is very even. Chance for third or fourth. MONITOR (4) was runner-up in a Steeplechase trial at Cambridge over 2700m on May 27. Not out of this. FABULOUS NANCY (6) is a chance for fourth at best. Yet to pay a dividend as a Steeplechaser. SUGGESTED PLAY: Devoted and Kentucky Boy are win wagers.
