CONGRATULATIONS KATRINA FITZPATRICK TROT 2200m Track: GOOD Clouds (Max: 20) |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
KARBINE (2) has been a model of consistency of late and deserved his success last start, coming from a wider barrier to score by 3 metres at this circuit and distance. Should enjoy an economical run from this draw so may strike again. ROMANTIC NINA (3) made it three placings on the trot when runner-up to Karbine here last week. Aided by a better draw so could turn the tables. WATTS UP THE HILL (5) is a lightly-raced gelding resuming after seven months. Has won two of three tries at this distance and has been readied by placing in three trials. THE SKY IS THE LIMIT (8) has been down the track in the last two outings outings but drew deep and worked last time. Recorded a series of top-three finishes prior so worth another chance.
