RACE COMMENT
This is the first heat of the Botra Novice Drivers Series and its for the 64-69 rated pacers. KNOCK OUT (1) draws to advantage and looks to get every chance so will take plenty of beating. MR BONDI (4) has been close up of late and will be again so is a danger along with THEE OLD BOMB (5) who will be a bit of value. MYNAMESEVAN (2), DENNY (3) and MAJOR LESTER (6) round out the field and wouldn’t entirely shock.TOP PICK: Thee Old Bomb (5) at the value.DANGERS: Knock Out (1) is the danger along with Mr Bondi (4).ROUGHIE: Mynamesevan (2) looks the improver.RATINGS: 5-1 2 4-3 6EXOTIC BET: Trifecta 5-field-field $20 flexi 100%LIKELY LEADER: Knock Out will look to hold Mynamesevan early.
