GOING:

WORLD SPORTS BETTING GUINEAS 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 20)    

Plenty of pressure from Isivivane, On My Honour and Eight On Eighteen battling for the lead over Sail The Seas. EIGHT ON EIGHTEEN (5) returns from a spell. The son of Lancaster Bomber is ideally at his best over further ground but he is loaded with class. If taking to this course, he should take a power of beating. FIRE ATTACK (4) fought hard for his last victory. He finished second in his only attempt over this distance. The son of Fire Away merits healthy respect. COSMIC SPEED (3) has good recent form lines to his credit. He ran on from last when second last time. He has won on this course previously and must be included in exotic bets. SAIL THE SEAS (1) resumes from a spell today after placing second last start. Muzi Yeni rides from pole position and the son of Vercingetorix can finish in the placings.
