HOI HA HANDICAP 1400m Track: SOFT |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Beauty Fit and Fantastic Fun have the early speed and take leading roles. PATCH OF THETA (1) has made an immediate impact in his career and continued that form with a 0.2L victory here 27 days ago. Hugh Bowman has had plenty of success while riding and there's still plenty of room for improvement. Loves this track and trip and looks the one to beat again. BEAUTY FIT (2) has been close of late since they changed up his racing pattern, with the booking of Purton a big key to his chances. The wide draw is a little niggle, but his recent form stacks up nicely and he can get back to winning ways. SUNLIGHT POWER (6) just missed behind Patch Of Theta last start and does meet him better at the weights this time. The draw is the query, but he gets back anyway and he's expected to be running on strongly over the concluding stages. HEALTHY HEALTHY (3) has won a recent trial since his last start 31 days ago and rises in trip for the first time. Can improve.
