GOING:

WESTERN RACEPIX HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clouds (Max: 22)   Rail: True.  

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Diamonds'n'rubies. LIPSTICK JUNGLE (4) was runner-up at Ascot two back then was run off her legs there over the sharper dash at the latest. This suits and gets a chance to find winning form. GOOD VIBES (3) was a winner five back then has placed all four since. Overdue for another win and goes well over the course and distance. Go close despite the tricky draw. DIAMONDS'N'RUBIES (8) is back from a break and is a speedy mare drawn low. Expected to be in this for a long way. SPEED BUBBLE (1) was safely held at Ascot last time but is much better placed here and has a strong third-up record. PRETTY DEVINE (2) goes well over the course and distance and is aided by the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Lipstick Jungle can atone.
