Ascot Park Race 3

MORE FM RACING TO I DO HANDICAP

Prize Money: $22,727

LOVE LEIGH (12) has yet to fire in a couple of starts in the South Island, and she ran out of condition fresh up here just over 3 weeks ago when trying to make all the running after working hard to find the front from a wide gate. She strips fitter and can make amends. DIOR SAUVAGE (2) had no luck when trapped wide at Wingatui last week, and he will start from a superior gate this time. He is peaking third up and ready to show some good form again. ELEGANT EXPLOSIVE (11) has found it hard to win another race, and she found a heavy track at Riccarton against her last time out. Her stable does well when trekking South to this circuit, and she is expected to bounce straight back into the top 3 here. ENDEAN AFFAIR (9) was set a task at Wingatui and she only peaked late after hitting the front at the top of the home straight. She has the pole position this time and won't be far away. Include. THUNDERFIST (8) gets back and needs luck, but if the pace is genuine, then he can't be risked.

Dual acceptor. Has now had two runs from a spell and shooting for his first win in 18 months. Easily accounted for last start when 11th over 1200m at Wingatui. Rates highly and can bounce back to his best form.

Is not a prolific winner with just two victories from 34 starts. Last start finished seventh over 1600m at Wingatui. Finds a suitable race and should play a big role.
