GOING: H(9)

WILD RULER AT NEWGATE CLASS 3 HANDICAP 1100m

Track: HEAVY 9   Clouds (Max: 17)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.88).  

Plenty of early pressure with Outta De Lady, Tandem and Joiselle leading the charge. CONSENZA (4) progressive Zoustar mare who finally draws a decent gate after two runs back. Will sit on the speed today and has genuine top-three claims. JOISELLE (11) undefeated Snitzel filly resuming after a four-and-a-half-month break. Created a good impression when last in work returning good figures on both occasions. Since fitted with a recent 1000m trial win and gets her chance from the good gate. ZAKOR (1) third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Big improver when sitting on the speed for a gritty third over 1200m at Tamworth in good company over 1200m on June 28. OUTTA DE LADY (8) returned from a five-month break with a fading eighth over 1000m at Tamworth on June 28. Down sharply in weight with the claim and has a solid second-up record. Improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,11,1,8.
