NEXT FAIRVIEW RACEMEETING MONDAY 24 JUNE MR 78 HANDICAP 1000m Track: GOOD |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Captain Tik Tok, Raptor Island and Seattle Ripper to match motors but there will be plenty of pressure from other quarters. FOREST SPY (5) won his last start over 1200m on this course. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. He has won twice and finished third once from five starts over this course and distance. Yuzae Ramzan retains the ride and the pair can follow up. SIBERIAN STEEL (3) rallied late when finishing second of 11 over 1200m on the polytrack last time. Three of his four career victories have come over this distance. He takes a drop in class and should be figuring in the finish. TUSCAN GOLD (1) has found a form return in his last two starts. He has finished second twice from as many starts over this course and distance. Further improvement is anticipated. SON OF ZEUS (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track. Fitter and has solid place claims.
