Race Overview
MARVELOUS BY NIGHT (2) is lightly raced, finished 4th over 1200m last time and can be expected to get much closer today. Strong each way chance. CLOSE COMBAT (3) was a winner four starts back and has not been far off since. He has to be taken very seriously. Big chance. FRUITION (12) can be forgiven for the last run and judged on penultimate win. Chance. LADY KOSTAS (7) more than likely has more to give and has a first four chance.
Selection:
2 - 3 - 12
