OVERVIEW: SPIRIT OF SAHARA (8) much improved run last start and finished off well. Just needs an ounce of luck to be fighting out the finish. ALTA BAYAMO (4) speedy pacer that looks suited here from the front-line draw and might take some catching. CHIRRIPO (10) is racing well against stronger opposition and will be running home strongly in this along with the honest ANIMADO (9) that is never far away. Both STAG PARTY (7) and DOUBLE THE HUNTER (5) have claims from the front line draws. EARLY SPEED: 4,5 RATINGS: 8/ 4/ 10/ 9/ 7/ 5

OVERVIEW: SPIRIT OF SAHARA (8) much improved run last start and finished off well. Just needs an ounce of luck to be fighting out the finish. ALTA BAYAMO (4) speedy pacer that looks suited here from the front-line draw and might take some catching. CHIRRIPO (10) is racing well against stronger opposition and will be running home strongly in this along with the honest ANIMADO (9) that is never far away. Both STAG PARTY (7) and DOUBLE THE HUNTER (5) have claims from the front line draws. EARLY SPEED: 4,5 RATINGS: 8/ 4/ 10/ 9/ 7/ 5
