Harlow Race 5

415Mtrs (A5)

Prize Money: $669

BLACK QUEST (1) was strongly fancied last time on the back of some good form but disappointed when fourth (27.72) at Harlow. Ready to return to form. FRONT SAHARA (2) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 6 length 5th at Harlow (27.45). Must be included in calculations. BONZER BONO (3) was unplaced two starts ago then improved to score last time out at Harlow over 415m (27.18). Levels up a grade but rates well this line-up on latest. Follow up. SALEMS BEST (6) can sneak into the finish.

Comments

Delivered a much better performance last start when third over 415m at Harlow in an A5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Thereabouts last couple and expected to run well.
