---|---|---|---|---|
Sizzling pace from Soopat, Revolt and On Hold locking horns ahead of Theresabearinthere and Mon Pierre. It is obviously hard to be critical of the form of REVOLT (3). He has got the picket fence going. Even going up in weight probably won't be the stopper as he will lead and be hard to run down. SOOPAT (4) has had admirers in all his recent efforts. Even when beaten he is never far away. It isn't the best of barriers though. ZENA BOY (11) is another who would be even a better show had he not drawn the widest marble. He is definitely going as well as he can. THERESABEARINTHERE (6) is the winner of 11 races and got another one two weeks ago. ON HOLD (2) is a value hope at her most favourable distance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Revolt to keep going.
