Race 1

St John Eight (1) Draw suits and racing pattern ideal. Can take catching with a trailing run
Iron Brigade (4) Class makes him a solid top-three player. Stable respect. Needed here
Aquila (6) Getting better with racing and gate speed to possibly cross them. Win chance

Race 2

Grace N Elegance (3) Hasn’t had much go right lately. Should be thereabouts with a tidy drive
Eyes To Heaven (5) Forgive last run. Much better than that and can lift sharply. Track suits
So Mystifying (6) Should strip fitter and could be the smoky in a wide-open race. Include

Race 3

Captains Secret (2) Quick beginner who can dictate from the front and prove hard to run down
Bruntwood Brigade (3) Ok last start and a threat to the favourites with a good run in transit
Debrief (9) Good effort last start and likely improver. Could sneak a place if gaps appear late

Race 4

Viscount Mackendon (5) Mobile will help and a winning chance from a strike rate stable.
Itmusclebelove (6) Has gate speed and goes well the track. Should give a good account
Brienne (1) Draws to lead or trail, either way, looks a winning hope from the ace. Include

.

Race 5

Arden’s Memory (5) Progressive type who’s improving every run. Hard to hold out with luck.
Mick Konstantin (1) Should bounce straight to the top and take plenty of catching here

Race 6

Voronov (1) Always a chance if he trots smoothly, Can test these from the draw. Hard to beat
Pretty In Pink (6) Should get a soft run handy. Winning claims here with good form lately
Sans Au Revoir (9) Due to show form and drawn to get a run through on the pegs. Needed
