Alexandra Park Race 1

IRT SIRES STAKES 2YO TROTTERS SERIES PRELUDE 1 MBL TROT

Prize Money: -

DUKE OF BOURBON (4) has not raced since he finished 2.25 metres away in second at this track over 1700m four-and-a-half months ago. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. TACTICO (2) is a two-year-old gelding from the Steve & Amanda Telfer yard on debut. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Has strong trial form coming into this. Has the right credentials to play a major role. BIJOU (3) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 2200m at this track last time out. Worth an each-way ticket. ANOTHER HILLBILLY (1) is a two-year-old filly from the Nicky Chilcott yard on debut. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Has strong trial form coming into this. Well-placed to score at her first appearance.

Created an impression last campaign but not foolproof. One to beat with manners.
