GOING: S(7)

Powerflo Solutions Handicap 1600m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: Out 8m Entire Circuit.  

Stay Silent to take charge ahead of Navy King at a solid tempo. The other race carried from Saturday and CHANGING COLOURS (5) is clearly the one to beat. She's been fantastic for the new yard, winning her past two very impressively with a huge gap to third latest. Is now 32 days between runs but Shinn should give her a lovely ride midfield and prove too strong late. STAY SILENT (4) is flying having won his past three with aggressive leading rides. Imagine similar tactics will be adopted here and he'll give another huge sight. SOMEWHERE (15) was very good behind Stay Silent last time from a tough spot. He's racing very well without much luck and can win. CASTLE ON HIGH (19) split that pair last time so must have claims again from FARHH FLUNG (9) who was good last time out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Changing Colours to win.
