Haydock Park Race 6

Racing Tv Profits Back To Racing Handicap

Stake: $16,088

NAVAL ACADEMY (3) showed plenty of ability at Pontefract finishing a neck second in this handicap grade over 1600m. Maintaining a progressive profile this year. Rates highly. KING OF WAR (1) has been going well with a pair of placings at Brighton and Chepstow prior to a solid fourth tackling a higher level 1400m handicap at Brighton last week. Holds plenty of appeal. GENTLE ELLEN (4) made the frame at Leicester finishing a close third among this company attempting 1200m. Brings claims. STREAK LIGHTNING (2) may place.
