Cambridge - 6 July 2023

R4 @ 6:44pm - #8 Mannion

This guy has had 4 starts back and he's drawn 8 on three occasions, and 7 the other.  He's actually racing better than it looks on paper.  Let's hope he can take a sit and finish the race off.  He's certainly one to look out for once he pulls a draw.

Race 5 @ 7:09pm - #11 Pacing Hope

A second row draw over the sprint trip makes it a tough ask.  She'll run her usual honest race.  Always a top four or five chance and the harder they go the better she'll like it.

Race 7 @ 7:59pm - #7 Rough And Ready, #8 New York Minute & #9 Crusader

We start with Rough And Ready the tightest assessed runner in the race.  It's a big drop in grade and his distance stats stack up.  While he has a wide draw to contend with, you can't leave a 13 race winner out.

An outside draw also plays against New York Minute but like his stablemate he slides in well.  He'll need plenty of luck, but look for him to be getting home late.

Crusader got softened up mid stages last week but was only collared late.  It's a perfect draw for him and hopefully he lands the trail or three back.  With a handy trip I'd like to think he's a top three chance.
