GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Expecting a strong gallop with Madam Igraine and Jackson Roots taking up the running over T O Thomson. MADAM IGRAINE (1) showed the way from barrier rise to score by 30 lengths last start over this course and distance. May be the one to beat. JACKSON ROOTS (10) finished seventh last start over this distance at this track. Form here strong boasting three wins from six starts. Well placed and should be in the finish. WIN SOLENNEL (7) fought on well for second last start over 1400m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Another big run is expected. HELLO TSCHUSS (3) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1500m at this track. Well placed to figure prominently again.
