GOING: H

Iline Clients (Bm65) 1600m

Track: HEAVY10   Clouds (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 5.5m | Morning Frost.  

The race pace looks solid enough here with several that like to lead or race close on settling. BUGATTI (3) has been racing well of late. Ready to win. This looks an ideal race. THE FIRST LINK (1) won his maiden here and races best on this track. Drawn to be a must include. LITTLE JOE (2) much improved this time in. Trifecta and first four chance. GO YOU GOOD THING (6) won his only start here. Winning rider from that day is on here. SEEUINABIT (11) was not too bad at all last start. Well drawn here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bugatti and The First Link are win wagers.
