Race comment
OVERVIEW: This evening’s first squaregaiting contest very much place punters in a position where they must select a form-line and lock it in – ‘Millionaire’ style – should they choose to play. Realistically, up to five of the nine runners engaged can salute, but with so much conjecture over maps and tactics, we’re kind of siding with stand-start specialists that may outstay their rivals if a war ensues. Heading our list is TRAVEL BUG (8) despite his tricky gate. After announcing himself during the COVID-driven pandemic period, that fellow flatlined for a period but his recent form is superb, and if there’s mid-race pressure he’ll be charging at them late. The same can be said for one-time Country Cup regent WELL DEFINED (5). Right now, his figure form-line looks like Donald Trump after a long night out but there was stacks to like about his last start effort and he might be the one that price assessors opt to risk. The other major players are there for all to see. He’s possibly appeared poor at his past couple but DONTOUCH THE DUCO (3) is a different horse in front, as evidenced by his 8 wins from 14 starts when leading, and he draws to lob his favoured role tonight. He’s a must for Early Quads as a result, as a are ‘class’ commodities BULLION HARRY (7) and HAMMERS LAW (6). EARLY SPEED: 1,3,6,7 RATINGS: 8/ 5/ 7/ 3/ 6/ 1/ 2/ 4/ 9

OVERVIEW: This evening’s first squaregaiting contest very much place punters in a position where they must select a form-line and lock it in – ‘Millionaire’ style – should they choose to play. Realistically, up to five of the nine runners engaged can salute, but with so much conjecture over maps and tactics, we’re kind of siding with stand-start specialists that may outstay their rivals if a war ensues. Heading our list is TRAVEL BUG (8) despite his tricky gate. After announcing himself during the COVID-driven pandemic period, that fellow flatlined for a period but his recent form is superb, and if there’s mid-race pressure he’ll be charging at them late. The same can be said for one-time Country Cup regent WELL DEFINED (5). Right now, his figure form-line looks like Donald Trump after a long night out but there was stacks to like about his last start effort and he might be the one that price assessors opt to risk. The other major players are there for all to see. He’s possibly appeared poor at his past couple but DONTOUCH THE DUCO (3) is a different horse in front, as evidenced by his 8 wins from 14 starts when leading, and he draws to lob his favoured role tonight. He’s a must for Early Quads as a result, as a are ‘class’ commodities BULLION HARRY (7) and HAMMERS LAW (6). EARLY SPEED: 1,3,6,7 RATINGS: 8/ 5/ 7/ 3/ 6/ 1/ 2/ 4/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: This evening’s first squaregaiting contest very much place punters in a position where they must select a form-line and lock it in – ‘Millionaire’ style – should they choose to play. Realistically, up to five of the nine runners engaged can salute, but with so much conjecture over maps and tactics, we’re kind of siding with stand-start specialists that may outstay their rivals if a war ensues. Heading our list is TRAVEL BUG (8) despite his tricky gate. After announcing himself during the COVID-driven pandemic period, that fellow flatlined for a period but his recent form is superb, and if there’s mid-race pressure he’ll be charging at them late. The same can be said for one-time Country Cup regent WELL DEFINED (5). Right now, his figure form-line looks like Donald Trump after a long night out but there was stacks to like about his last start effort and he might be the one that price assessors opt to risk. The other major players are there for all to see. He’s possibly appeared poor at his past couple but DONTOUCH THE DUCO (3) is a different horse in front, as evidenced by his 8 wins from 14 starts when leading, and he draws to lob his favoured role tonight. He’s a must for Early Quads as a result, as a are ‘class’ commodities BULLION HARRY (7) and HAMMERS LAW (6). EARLY SPEED: 1,3,6,7 RATINGS: 8/ 5/ 7/ 3/ 6/ 1/ 2/ 4/ 9
