RACE FIVE
LA PISTOLA (6) had a 2-start campaign in December, finishing within 2.5m of them 1st up and then proving too strong from the 2nd line to open his win account when 2nd up. Returning from gate 5 last start when settling back in the pack, it was a sound effort 1st up. The gate stings here, yet with the added fitness, this race isn’t out of reach.
ROBINMEGOOD (3) started from inside the 2nd line last start when angled away from the pegs early to find position and finishing mid-field. Placed his previous 3 in succession, he has good speed off the arm and with the improved gate can fire the 1st shot here and give them something to gun down.
CANNAN (7) is in nice touch, winning 3 of his past 5 starts, the latest when making the closing shot a winning one from the pocket trail. In danger of being shuffled away, he will be searching for gaps.
INCITER (2) hasn’t tasted success for some time, but he is never too far away from the placings. He found them too sharp last start and with the right trip, should find this a more suitable contest.
SELECTIONS: LA PISTOLA (6), ROBINMEGOOD (3), CANNAN (7), INCITER (2)
