RACE 1

2. Ashrun | J: Celine Gaudray

Returns here, getting in at 59kgs after Celine’s claim. The draw is tricky, given the lack of speed, and he does have a long campaign ahead, hopefully culminating in a tilt at the Sydney Cup. He’s going well at home and could give this a shake, but it’s a long day with plenty of chances ahead.

DANGERS: Dunkel; Flash Feeling; Mankayan

4. Mankayan | J: John Allen

Johnny will likely be positive from that draw and match fitness on his side. We did look at the Torney and Launceston Cups, but this does look to be the more suitable of the bunch. It wouldn’t surprise to see him win this.

DANGERS: Dunkel; Flash Feeling

8. Wil John | J: Michael Dee

He resumes here after contesting the Grand National Hurdle to close out his last campaign. With jumps targets ahead, he’ll more than likely get back here from where we hope to see him run on.
