RACE COMMENT
The biggest field of the day brings together a competitive bunch, where expect SOHO TIGER LILY (5) to use her usual sharp gate speed to attempt to find, and likely be first to, the pegs. MAXX (6) should also push forward from his wide gate, with only fair gate speed shown by most of those drawn inside, apart from ROCKNROLL MCCRAE (1), who should find a forward position from the pole draw. TAPPY (7) looks the most progressive horse in the field, strikes an awkward draw in a big field and will require a good drive to get her into the finish. LADY IN LINE (10) has winning form to her name and should again be running home strongly, as she consistently does. KENYA (13) is normally driven aggressively but draws the car park here, so it will be interesting to see whether they adopt his usual tactics from well back in the field. Selections: MAXX (6), TAPPY (7), SOHO TIGERLILY (5), LADY IN LINE (10)
