Monmore Race 12

Ladbrokes Gold Cup 2025 Heat 6

Prize Money: $1,492

BORN RACER (1) last raced on April 19 when fifth (19.45) over 320m at Limerick in a SS0. Has a good record at this journey. Has a good overall strike-rate and looks a key player. CUNNIGAR YOUSIR (4) jumped well from the low draw and led all the way to score last start (28.48) at Monmore in a OR over 480m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Can make it back-to-back wins. JACKTAVERN CHIEF (5) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a 5 length winner of a OR3 at Newcastle over 480m (28.35). Rises in grade but expected to measure up. SINGALONG REX (3) is new to this track but is worth considering.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 5 lengths over 480m at Newcastle in a handy 28.35, beating Salacres Slick. Excellent record from this trap, including two wins. Go well.
