GOING: N

SOMERSET FARMS PACE 1660m

Track: GOOD      

WESTERN ACTION (3) was yet again about the mark last time out when runner-up at this venue, continuing a string of top-four finishes including a win at this circuit and distance three back. Should have no excuses from this advantageous draw. LETS GO BAILEY (6) wasn't too far off the placings last time. If things go his way he is up to winning a race like this. PLAYFUL MISS (2) draws well again and could be close to a win having placed the last three times she raced here. JIMMY JOYCE (1) led from a couple of spots wider and boxed on for second last start at this circuit and distance. Has the speed to be prominent from the ace draw.
