RACING TODAY MR 76 HANDICAP 2000m Track: STANDARD |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Keen speed battle, with Roll Of The Dice, Downing Seven and Anatolian Silver prominent. HAARLEM (6) is better than his last start run over 1600m would suggest as he clipped heels leaving the start. If getting away to a clean start, he can return to winning form. SLAINTE MHATH (3) is better than his last start as he was reported to be not striding out. Luyolo Mxothwa steps back into the saddle and on previous form, he should be involved in the fight to the finish. ORANJEMUND (9) finished seventh two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by a neck over 2000m at this track. Has solid each-way claims. GEORGE HANDEL (7) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing second over 1600m. Include in combinations.
