Jimmy The Rich writes that trainer Paul Peter saddles What A Miracle in Race 5. She showed very good improvement when finishing third over this course and distance last time.
Despite jumping outwards at the start, she showed good pace before getting caught in the shadow of the post.
The daughter of What A Winter is a progressive type and in this type of field, she should be very hard to beat.
Alesian Chief from the Corrie Lensley stable takes his place in Race 6.
He was an impressive winner when shedding his maiden tag over this course and distance, two weeks ago. He showed good speed that day and won with a ton in hand.
The son of Vercingetorix takes on stronger, but he is lightly raced and should be up to the task at hand.
The false rail is 10m in from the 1600m outside rails to 600m with a 10m spur at the 600m mark.
- The Bipot starts in the first at 12h40
