RACE FOUR
LINCOLN ROAD (1) led them up from this gate last start over the 2138m trip and after a steady opening 800 ramped the tempo only to be gunned down via the passing lane. A winner in slick time when lighting the lamps here 3 starts back, the return to the mile is a plus and he can dictate.
CASTALONG SHADOW (3) rolled forward from gate 4 last start and content to cut the breeze proved too strong over the mile in a career best winning rate. Fitter from the run after being 2nd up from a break, he will likely need to roll the sleeves again here and will be in for the fight.
CASINO GRIN (8) was a sharp winner here 4 starts back when leading throughout over the 2138m trip. He hasn’t had conditions to suit since that run and with a cosy trip on offer here can place.
COURAGEOUS LEO (4) found running line position from the 2nd line over the mile here last start and chased home well to grab the bronze. Settling handy, he can be around the money one again.
SELECTIONS: LINCOLN ROAD (1), CASTALONG SHADOW (3), CASINO GRIN (8), COURAGEOUS LEO (4)
