Race Overview
GRAND LIBYA (1) is the tentative selection despite top weight and still searching for that first win. He was placed numerous times in the UK and ran well at this track over slightly further when last seen earlier this month. OCTOBER CHOPE (11) could be the main danger. She was a winner at this track two starts ago and has hit form recently. PELUSIVE (13) can not be overlooked and should give a good account of herself. GIN GEMBRE (15) is also worth a mention.
Selection:
1 - 11 - 13
