RACE FOUR
The third McNeil heat here after two heats last week, where RILEY MOMENT (8) struck trouble in her outing soon after the start. Standing the leaders a big margin, she chased valiantly to grab 4th behind KAR MANOR who kept them moving. With a safe passage, she can capitalise.
BOURBONONTHEROCKS (9) was safely away before being positioned five back as they were in single file through the first lap. Covered when the moves came at the bell, she was a long way off them and chasing. Fitter for that run where she was first up in over six weeks, she can be sharper in this.
BANFF (4) was resuming from a spell in the first round and after stepping cleanly was looking to take them all the way, only to be collared in the shadows of the post. He can feature prominently again.
GUNNING (11) had been held back to chase this series and in the first round was sent around to sit parked before fading out. He will need to feature to chase a spot in the final.
SELECTIONS: RILEY MOMENT (8), BOURBONONTHEROCKS (9), BANFF (4), GUNNING (11)
SUGGESTED BET: RILEY MOMENT (8) to win
