GOING: G

IN THE BOX SEAT PODCAST BROUGHT TO YOU BY GALLOP TV APPRENTICE CLASS 5 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 20)    

Strong pace from Brave Voyager, Iron Will and Mc Dazzler, with Phutulicious and Trafalgar Square on their heels. BARRY DU GROND (2) is fitter for two runs back and put the writing on the wall last time when a narrow second. At top now and can go one better. IN THE BAG (8) finished last campaign with a second before a short break. Doesn't win out of turn but looks well placed here with the nice weight. Definite winning hope. RHYTHM (5) is another that finds it hard to win but has placed at last two in open class and looks ideally placed here to break through. NOW I GOT YOU (11) ran below expectations last time at Greyville All Weather, finishing seventh and beaten 2.5 lengths. Nicely placed to turn things around.
