GOING: H(10)

JOIN TAB RACING 1600m

Track: HEAVY 9     Out 4m  

Good pace with Mont Ventoux, Major Major and Pacifico matching motors. MOONLIGHT MAGIC (4) she is is a multiple class dropper here. This is the easiest field she has met in quite a while. Drawn wide but can cope in this for certain. Can win this very easily. JAFFIRA (7) won well at his last start. Class riser. Big weight dropper here too. Drawn to be top tier again. RAVELLO (6) is fresh up here. Trial second earlier this month and looked ready. Chance for sure in all of your multiples. MATANE (11) is an improver on her fresh up run in this. She is a trifecta and first four chance here. BOW HILL (13) has been not too bad for a while now. Wide gate here. Chance here still for all of your combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Moonlight Magic is a win wager.
