RACE 7

MERRY JEWEL (5) started first up for the stable of Donny Smith where she over raced badly and did well to battle on for fourth. She trialled up reasonably in a strong trial taken out by Bigger The Bettor. She should be hard to beat.

ABSOLUTELY STOKED (8) didn’t have much luck last time out at Marburg when forced to take a trail behind the leader before working away from the inside and running second to The Blingster. She should get a good run off the speed and can be running on late. 

WELL SAID NUGGET (6) has run second his latest two outings. He took a trail on Kerbang two starts ago and was able to run second to that horse who has since run well. He was running on well late behind Theresachance in a race that wasn’t run to suit. He should be hard to beat.

BEAU STEELE (1) led from the stand start at Marburg last time out and was well beaten there but probably isn’t suited to leading at this stage of his career. He should get a good run close to the speed in this race and should be thereabouts.

SELECTIONS: MERRY JEWEL (5), ABSOLUTELY STOKED (8), WELL SAID NUGGET (6), BEAU STEELE (1)

SUGGESTED BET: MERRY JEWEL (5) to win.
