RACE SEVEN
A rare standing start event for the open performers which will provide vital practice behind the tapes for the upcoming feature, the Flashing Red.
MACH ALERT (8) has a 50%-win strike rate from the tapes, scoring wins in 5 of his 10 appearances. Spearing out to lead throughout over the mobile mile last start, that followed a 2nd behind the start COLT THIRTY ONE. Despite facing the 20m impost, he can look to add another win to his tally.
GANGSTER BOY (4) will appreciate the front line here after his past 2 starts from the tapes have been from the 20m line around the tight Marburg track. Placing in each of those contests, if he can step cleanly, he will be pressing forward and will look to run them off their legs.
SIR JULIAN (1) backs-up from Sat night where he looked a strong place hope from inside the 2nd line. Not suited at the Marburg track at his last stand start outing, he will appreciate conditions here.
OHOKA PUNTER (7) is another with some smart stand start figures next to his name. 3rd up from a break, his 2nd up run was a tidy effort from the 2nd line when chasing home MACH ALERT. He has claims.
SELECTIONS: MACH ALERT (8), GANGSTER BOY (4), SIR JULIAN (1), OHOKA PUNTER (7)
