RACE TWO
JOHNROD (8) has had a super season, claiming 9 of his 13 career victories here at Redcliffe this term. The last of those was back in August, but he looks to have found his way back to the right type of opposition to graft out another one. Runner-up to LUXURY LAD three back, he is up to this.
TRACER BULLET (3) faced gate 6 last start over this trip and after settling in the running line was hitting the line in nice order when under 2m from the winner in a blanket finish. Tackling a tougher contest at headquarters two starts back, this looks suitable for him to challenge.
PURPLE SHADES (5) receives no favours gate 5, but he has been running nice races from tough gates recently. Charging home to be a half-head away three back, he is in the mix against this line up.
BUKTHSYSTEM (2) eased out to the rear from gate 5 last start and made some nice metres in the latter stages to finish 6m in arrears of the winner. Settling closer to the action can aid his chances.
SELECTIONS: JOHNROD (8), TRACER BULLET (3), PURPLE SHADES (5), BUKTHSYSTEM (2)
SUGGESTED BET: JOHNROD (8) to win
