DROOPYS LARA (4) is progressing well with another good run, placing by 1.3 lengths (16.81) in a D2 at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and four minor placings to her name from five starts. Deserves serious consideration. TAYLORS MELODY (1) goes very well at the distance with two wins and a placing from five starts. Recorded a 0.8 lengths win (16.93) in a D3 last time at this track. Can feature with the right run. ME FIFI (6) found some support last start but struggled into fifth (17.09), beaten 5.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Should be in this for a long way. BURROW LIGHTYEAR (2) is always hard to beat when drawn in this box.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished 4th on March 5 over 285m at this track behind Gingers Baileys beaten 5 lengths (17.25) in a D2. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 285m in a D2 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow her up.

Comments

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 5th in a D2 on March 11 over 285m at this track behind Lose Control beaten 5.5 lengths (17.09). Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
