GOING: H(8)

Track: HEAVY 8   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: +2m 1200-600, true remainder. (Pent: 7.20)  

Expecting Liselle's Luck to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. GARCON RENARD (5) was super when resuming two weeks ago, flashing home from the back to miss by a long neck. If they can hold a more prominent spot from the draw this time he will prove hard to hold out. TAKEN TO TASK (4) has made the perfect start to his career, going two from two. Will need to go up another rung but is capable. MISS ORTH (8) rattled home over the top of them here to get the verdict three weeks ago. Will likely drift a long way back again from the draw and be looking to repeat the dose. AYSGARTH (2) finished alongside Garcon Renard when resuming. Not drawn as kindly this time but deserves respect. LISELLE'S LUCK (13) was poor last time but had been going much better prior and in a race devoid of speed outside of her, she's a chance to steal it in front. SUGGESTED PLAY: Garcon Renard get the nod.
