Brighton Race 6

Streamline 202020 A Furlong In Front Handicap

Stake: $16,236

Dual course and distance winner BLENHEIM STAR (5) is provided relief by the handicapper. Ran well first time out last season and fancied to go well on comeback. OTAGO (4) is a five-time course winner over 1408m. Just about stays this longer trip and rates a serious player if ready on first start of the season. Market likely to be informative. MARSH BENHAM (1) possesses a fabulous record around here. May progress. KRACKING (6) is another making the shortlist after finishing third from a marginally higher mark tackling AW last time.
