LADBROKES BIG BETS COPY NOW PACE 1660m

Track: GOOD      

THE MAHARANI (1) had a tough draw on the back row and had to wok when resuming but she will be fitter for that hitout and is much better served by the ace draw. Looking for big improvement. SCRUFFY (5) owns a decent record at this distance and this looks a suitable assignment after tackling a higher-graded race last time. Major player. MY ULTIMATE COSSIE (6) looks capable of making an impact in this line-up if things go his way. A good draw could see BOSTON BRONSKI (4) measure up in what looks a suitable assignment.
