RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: HUXHAM CHUBB (4) has competed against some very smart 3yo fillies in recent months and will find this an easier assignment. Looks suited and gets her chance to get back into form. GUARANTEED TROUBLE (11) racing well for a race of this class and despite the second line draw is suited by the sprint trip should figure in the finish. METRO BLISS (9) gets a nice trailing draw and was a winner three starts ago and expect him to be running on late. I OF THE HURRIKANE (12) very capable of improving here and must include. RIDDLEMETHIS (3) broke through for a much-deserved win last start and won impressively. Drawn well and despite the class rise should be in this for a long way. Both WEREGOINGTOGETCHA (10) and WATCH IT HAPPEN (7) are going better than their figure form reads to be place and first four hopes. EARLY SPEED: 3,4 RATINGS: 4/ 11/ 9/ 12/ 3/ 10/ 7
