LUCK OF THE IRISH TROTTERS MOBILE 1609m Track: FAST |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
SPEEDY LOVER (8) was no match for two top trotters last week but he did best of the rest for third and this is easier. He has been racing consistently having only once missed the top four in his last eight starts. This could be his chance to win another one. OH NOVA LOVE (3) takes another jump in grade but he is flying, completing a winning hat trick at this circuit when racing wide early before finding the front and scoring by 8m over this distance. A good draw could see him take the next step. TOP OF THE MOMENT (11) started a hot favourite here on Tuesday but galloped out so did well for second. Chance with better manners. MACHO MAN (2) came from much wider when placed behind Oh Nova Love last start. Draws to be competitive again. SUNNY GEE (6) has been solid when fourth at his last couple and could be ready to bob up again.
