TOP BET
Race 1: CELEBRATION ROCK(4)
Jockey: L Ferraris - Trainer: D Drier
CELEBRATION ROCK had a poor second outing but that was in a top quality feature event and the highly rated imported colt drops to maiden company today. Of course he was pipped after finding strong support on debut over this c & d prior to that and Marcus has been summoned. The bay colt has obvious scope for improvement but it will be interesting to see how he fares with blinkers.
Race 2: VI VA PI PA(6)
Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: S Tarry
VI VA PI PA was heavily supported in her disappointing last run when she tried ground but the Tarry inmate had two fair prior efforts and should enjoy this shorter distance. She is well drawn and now faces her own sex.
Race 4: LUCIUS FOX(4)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: P Gadsby
It could pay to follow the progress of Asiana in the prior event as the first selection here, LUCIUS FOX relished the extra ground and produced an eye-catching c & d performance in the same event as the former four weeks ago. The Var gelding finished under two lengths adrift after making good late progress.
Race 7: EDGE OF THE SUN(3)
Jockey: L Ferraris - Trainer: A Rivalland
An intriguing contest that may not be run at a strong tempo and the two pacey sorts EDGE OF THE SUN and SILVER CENT could fight out the finish. The former is the slight preference over this ideal c & d and he is weighted to reduce the recent deficit with the latter. The Howells inmate continues to drop in the merit ratings.
VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:
Race 3: LITTLE AUDREY(7)
Jockey: M Yeni - Trainer: D Howells
The lightly raced three-year old LITTLE AUDREY is coming to hand and her eye-catching recent effort over the mile indicated that she could have plenty of improvement to come over this extra ground. Of course the big concern is that she takes on older rivals on unfavourable weight terms but the Howells inmate has good scope.
