GOING: N

DRIVER OF THE NIGHT - SHANE GRAHAM PACE 1780m

Track: GOOD      

WHOS WATCHING LILY (1) was responsible for a far better performance at her latest appearance, finishing fourth over 947m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Big chance in this comparable race. MILLIEWOOD (2) is in good form at present. Finished fifth at her latest appearance over 1780m at this track, beaten 6 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field and she can figure in the finish. ASHLEE NITRO (5) is in the mix following a respectable third at her most recent appearance over 1780m at this track. SHES IN LINE (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 4 metres at Marburg over 1850m.
