Doncaster Race 10

483Mtrs (OR)

Prize Money: $1,577

SOLE FOCUS (1) struggled in tougher grade last start after drifting back at Doncaster, but prior to that won easily by 4.5 lengths at Sunderland (27.11) beating Sunnyside Gurkha in a OR on February 27. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Looks the one to beat on his best form. ROLO TWIX (5) clocked a dominant 27.94 when winning over 450m at Doncaster last start. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. FOXWOOD CARTER (6) had been racing in honest fashion recording two placings in a row before finishing fifth (30.10) at Doncaster latest. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. BRIGADIR BRINDLE (4) ran a blistering 29.64 win last time. Not to be underestimated. Something for the Multiples: BRAYDENS BUDDY (3)

Winner two starts back at Sunderland when scoring by 4.5 lengths in 27.11. Last start finished last over 450m at Doncaster beaten 5.5 lengths (28.55) behind Grantstown Cross in a OR3 on March 7. Well placed here and can atone.

Good effort after racing on the speed to score in an A1 by nose at Great Yarmouth over 462m (27.88). Prefer to watch at this stage.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 2.5 lengths at Doncaster (29.64) beating Gaytime Orla in a OR on March 28. Among the chances and worth following up.
