GOING: G(4)

OConnors Case IH 0-58 Handicap 1400m Track: GOOD 4 Clouds (Max: 16) Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.25).
Strong pace early from Statesmanship booting up to hold the rail with Moanastar coming across to apply pressure. DOUGAL MCKEEN (2) broke the duck last start and has the talent to be a factor here even though up in grade. SHAL EXCEED (3) is from a top stable and while the gate makes it tough he has the ability to win this with the right run. QUBELLA (11) has posted her only two wins here, on her home track, one of them just three runs ago so must be respected. VONK (8) mixes his form but is a player at his best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dougal Mckeen to win.
