PricedUp.Bet Derby Plate - Heat 2

Prize Money: $1,465

BUSHPARK CATHAL (6) boasts a strong record this journey with four wins and five minors from 10 tries. Below best last time at Towcester (29.64) in a OR, finishing a 8 length sixth. Looks the one to beat with even luck. RACKETHALL BRUTE (4) was game in defeat when finished in the minors last start over the 500m at Towcester, running a strong 28.99 in a OR. Top win latest and can measure up again. ZENITH PASHA (5) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 0.8 lengths at Towcester in a handy 29.16 beating Alright Precious. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Must be included in calculations. HACKNEY TOAST (3) has a solid strike rate at this track and distance.

Form slipped last start when he finished 5th on May 16 over 500m at Towcester behind Strike It Skye beaten 8 lengths (29.21) in a OR1. Others make more appeal.

Big odds but gave a huge sight after burning early, finishing a one length third (28.99) over 500m at Towcester. Forward showing expected.
