The first race on the day is off at 12h05 and the last race is due off at 16h45.
So They Say from the Paul Peter stable looks to be the best bet on the afternoon and she should be a Place Accumulator banker.
Jimmy The Rich writes that she set the pace in her last start over today’s course and distance, but was caught in the shadow of the post.
The daughter of Byword gets the services of Warren Kennedy once again and she should be hard to peg back in the run down to the line.
Comet Crystal who is currently trading at 10/1 with Hollywoodbets looks to be the best value on the card.
She finished 2.05 lengths behind Meercat in her last effort and is 3.5kgs better off at the weights.
She finished a neck behind Strada Statale in her penultimate effort and is 3.5kgs better off at the weights.
It must be noted that she is unbeaten from two starts under today’s 2.5kgs claiming apprentice, Cole Dicken. If putting her best foot forward, she should get back to winning ways.
Please note that Francois Herholdt is not riding today.
The false rail is set at 3m on the back straight and bend, with a 5m spur at the 500m mark.
