Harlow Race 8

238Mtrs (D4)

Prize Money: $700

TOMAHURRA SCOBBY (5) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at Harlow over 415m (28.19). Better than last start and worth following up. MERCURY RISING (6) drew the outside trap and was game in defeat when only 1.3 lengths from the winner Zazzeras Fitz (16.00) at Harlow. Ready to find winning form. DIRECT RUSSIAN (4) missed the frame latest but had been racing well prior to that including a D4 win two back (15.63) at Harlow. Expected to do much better this time. ESSJAY CEEAREJAY (3) is worth including.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 415m at Harlow, a continuation of some ordinary form. Prefer to watch at this stage.
