---|---|---|---|---|
Jazz All Knight to take up the running with Thread Fighter and Dodge The Dark close at hand. Another good race. IMPENDING HARMONY (7) resumes for the premier local barn (Dryden). She has pieces of form good enough and no surprise to see her presented more forward this time around. Each way. OAKY DOAKS (10) was beaten 2L here on debut and didn't have the best of it. He maps well and Cahill is aboard today replacing Innes Jnr who rides the above. Fitter and has decent claims. VERONA FORCE (14) debuts for Dryden and has trialled well. Has a 2kg claim and the early betting suggests she's got the ability. will be key. JAZZ ALL KNIGHT (8) peaks and has claims. Needs to manage a wide gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Impending Harmony each way.
