RACE COMMENT
ANALYSIS: KEAYANG SWEETHEART (5) is a progressive mare who has a great career record of three wins and five placings from nine career starts. She clashed with three rivals that reoppose here last weekend and did a super job to finish fourth despite being stuck outside the leader. She was in the same position her prior two runs and finished runner-up, and just needs a bit of luck in transit to give this a real shake. ROYAL APPOINTMENT (9) beat her home last weekend with a great run from off speed and is bursting to win a race of this calibre, RANGER RICK (11) has seven-straight placings this campaign and was only narrowly beaten last time out at Horsham, while HIGHLANDHARTBREAKA (13) finished second in that aforementioned race at Melton after working hard to find the spot behind the leader. He has a great sprint and will be storming late from the back row draw.
