Vulnerable favourite on the card:
Race 6 Fast Most Furious (9-5): Ran into some traffic issues in his last and still almost got up for the win, but playing against the trainer alone here, as long as he’s hovering at 2% I will play against every short priced runner he sends out.
Horses coming out of key races (races where multiple winners have come back next time out and won):
Race 419 (Winners: 2nd & 8th, second: 6th)

Last race watch list horses:
Race 6 Best Step (10-1): Had been away since last October when he was put on the shelf with a lame left hind leg. Casper was able to secure Purton for the ride so obviously the problem with the hind leg has been solved, at the start he took a nice leap costing him at least a couple lengths to the field but more importantly it took him right out of his comfort zone of running at the front of the pack. Then when he straightened up coming out of the short turn he had to check up and became rank and refused to get into a comfortable gate until half-way in the turn. There was no urging by Zach in lane and galloped out past the wire.
