Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s super to see a one-metro-win contest for the trotters here but finding the winner will still be no easy task. Forgetting maps for a moment – as it’s confusing where he’ll lob – our top pick on form is the often underrated TRAVEL BUG (2). Plainly put, while many of these runners have been competing at a lower level TRAVEL BUG (2) gallantly chased home Sparkling Success two back and then went even better charging home after potential freak Cover Of Darkness last time out. On absolute talent his major danger is NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) who claimed the Metro Trot Final three back and was better than he looked tackling elite company last weekend. Ok; now we return to the map. From a tactical perspective the third serious hope is BEEFOUR BACARDI (7) who looks the most likely leader and gets the benefit of being trained by Andy Gath who hasn’t trialled her heading into this first-up assignment but often doesn’t when he has them spot on at home. In a race of this nature there are several others that can pop up at odds with perfect fortune but the other runner worth serious consideration for Early Quads is DELS DESTINY (10) who is going way better than it may appear and who only needs a genuine tempo and a hint of fortune to charge home over the top at a price.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s super to see a one-metro-win contest for the trotters here but finding the winner will still be no easy task. Forgetting maps for a moment – as it’s confusing where he’ll lob – our top pick on form is the often underrated TRAVEL BUG (2). Plainly put, while many of these runners have been competing at a lower level TRAVEL BUG (2) gallantly chased home Sparkling Success two back and then went even better charging home after potential freak Cover Of Darkness last time out. On absolute talent his major danger is NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) who claimed the Metro Trot Final three back and was better than he looked tackling elite company last weekend. Ok; now we return to the map. From a tactical perspective the third serious hope is BEEFOUR BACARDI (7) who looks the most likely leader and gets the benefit of being trained by Andy Gath who hasn’t trialled her heading into this first-up assignment but often doesn’t when he has them spot on at home. In a race of this nature there are several others that can pop up at odds with perfect fortune but the other runner worth serious consideration for Early Quads is DELS DESTINY (10) who is going way better than it may appear and who only needs a genuine tempo and a hint of fortune to charge home over the top at a price.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s super to see a one-metro-win contest for the trotters here but finding the winner will still be no easy task. Forgetting maps for a moment – as it’s confusing where he’ll lob – our top pick on form is the often underrated TRAVEL BUG (2). Plainly put, while many of these runners have been competing at a lower level TRAVEL BUG (2) gallantly chased home Sparkling Success two back and then went even better charging home after potential freak Cover Of Darkness last time out. On absolute talent his major danger is NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) who claimed the Metro Trot Final three back and was better than he looked tackling elite company last weekend. Ok; now we return to the map. From a tactical perspective the third serious hope is BEEFOUR BACARDI (7) who looks the most likely leader and gets the benefit of being trained by Andy Gath who hasn’t trialled her heading into this first-up assignment but often doesn’t when he has them spot on at home. In a race of this nature there are several others that can pop up at odds with perfect fortune but the other runner worth serious consideration for Early Quads is DELS DESTINY (10) who is going way better than it may appear and who only needs a genuine tempo and a hint of fortune to charge home over the top at a price.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s super to see a one-metro-win contest for the trotters here but finding the winner will still be no easy task. Forgetting maps for a moment – as it’s confusing where he’ll lob – our top pick on form is the often underrated TRAVEL BUG (2). Plainly put, while many of these runners have been competing at a lower level TRAVEL BUG (2) gallantly chased home Sparkling Success two back and then went even better charging home after potential freak Cover Of Darkness last time out. On absolute talent his major danger is NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) who claimed the Metro Trot Final three back and was better than he looked tackling elite company last weekend. Ok; now we return to the map. From a tactical perspective the third serious hope is BEEFOUR BACARDI (7) who looks the most likely leader and gets the benefit of being trained by Andy Gath who hasn’t trialled her heading into this first-up assignment but often doesn’t when he has them spot on at home. In a race of this nature there are several others that can pop up at odds with perfect fortune but the other runner worth serious consideration for Early Quads is DELS DESTINY (10) who is going way better than it may appear and who only needs a genuine tempo and a hint of fortune to charge home over the top at a price. EARLY SPEED: 7 (Potential Leader) + 1 + 2,3,4,6 RATINGS: 2/ 9/ 7/ 10/ 1/ 12/ 11/ 4/ 13/ 5/ 6/ 3
