NEXT FAIRVIEW RACEMEETING FRIDAY 4 APRIL MR 80 HANDICAP 1900m

Track: AW      

Strong pace from Strewn Sky, Catch The Tune and Jack In The Green. DOWNING SEVEN (2) is better than his last three starts against stronger company. He has won three times and finished second once from seven starts over this course and distance. She takes a drop in class and from his good draw of three, he can return to winning form. JACK IN THE GREEN (6) stayed on well after losing two lengths at the start last time. He has won once and finished second once from three starts on this course. If jumping on terms from pole position, he can figure in the finish. PAINITE (3) just held on when winning his last start over this distance on the turf. He has won twice and finished third twice from five starts over this course and distance. With a bit of luck from the widest draw he should be fighting out the finish. ROLL OF THE DICE (7) finished fifth last time out over 1600m at this track. Racing over a longer trip and has winning claims on best figures. Well worth an each-way ticket.
