Harlow Race 10

238Mtrs (D5)

Prize Money: $635

DRYLAND SPARKS (2) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 2 lengths into second (27.31) at Harlow in a IT over 415m. Makes plenty of appeal. RATHBALLY ANNA (1) has a strong record this track and trip with seven wins and six placings from 21 starts. Scored by 1.5 lengths last time (15.74) in a D5 over 238m at Harlow. Looks a key chance on best figures. MIKEYS PICK (4) continues to race well but is struggling to break through, placing at his last six runs. Last time finished 2nd over 238m at Harlow beaten 1.5 lengths (15.86) behind RATHBALLY ANNA in a D5 on April 8. Overdue and gets his chance. BARAN GHOST (6) is in the mix after placing last time out.

In great form and hasn't been out of the frame in six starts. Last start finished 2nd over 238m at Harlow beaten 1.5 lengths (15.86) behind Rathbally Anna in a D5 on April 8. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to feature.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.75 lengths into third over 238m at Harlow. Sure to be thereabouts again.
