RACE TWO
A tough trot here over the 2647m, a trip that is beyond the ideal for the majority of the combatants stepping up to the tapes. AVEROSS DON (5) made a mess of the start from the 50m tape last start, ending his chances. An error put paid to his hopes 2 starts back, but if he can trot cleanly, this is the type of race that is within reach.
HAVANA MAGIC (8) closed out in good order last start behind PRINCESS FAITH after starting from the 60m impost. An error cost her any chance the start prior behind CHASING GREAT. If stepping cleanly from the 20m, she is going well enough to make an impression in this.
HELLO JOLENE JOLENE (6) was huge in defeat here last week, going off-stride at basically the same point in both laps of the 2138m. Somehow she was still only 8m from the winner and she just needs to trot throughout to be a major threat.
THE REAPER (3) would be better suited if this was the 2138m but from the 10m tape can get forward in the early stages. Runner-up at his past 2, if he can limit any early burn, he can feature.
SELECTIONS: AVEROSS DON (5), HAVANA MAGIC (8), HELLO JOLENE JOLENE (6), THE REAPER (3)
