Watch Pgr On Sky Sports Racing Stakes

Prize Money: $851

ROMEO GUSTO (5) was prominent early from trap four and stalked the lead before levelling up to score (29.48) at this track in A7 over 480m. Ideally placed to take this out. LEFT UNREAD (3) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fifth (30.32) in an A6 at this track over 480m. Cannot be left out. A BIT OF NOAH (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (30.21) in an A5 at this track. Expected to feature in the finish. THE INSTIGATOR (6) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Good effort after tracking the speed to score in an A7 by 0.5 len at this track over 480m (29.48). Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
