GOING: S(5)

Roy and Dora Coghlan Memorial BM68 Hcp 1400m

Track: Soft 5   Clouds (Max: 24)   Rail: True. (Pent: 4.62)  

Pace genuine with Muscle Up and Gingerson pressing hard closely followed by Romary and Lord Whitegate. UNIQUE EAGLE (3) keeps winning and was backed off the map again here last time. She will race forward and the in-form Darmanin sticks aboard. She keeps improving and is hard to go past. ROMARY (1) will be better for the two runs for the new stable and was beaten far by Rigoletto last time. Races forward and is in well with the 3kg claim. She's still well shy of her best. RIGOLETTO (6) turned the form around winning that contest and registering a good number. Gives away starts and always needs a good ride. LORD WHITEGATE (8) is a leader who won a 60 here well. Peaks and can't be ruled out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Unique Eagle is hard to go past.
