Bath Race 6

Monarch Classic At Bath Racecourse Handicap

Stake: $13,151

MREMBO (3) brings strong place form following a close third tackling a 2200m handicap at Windsor eleven days ago. Looks progressive this season. Likely player. VILLALOBOS (4) ran well finishing 2.25L second contesting a similar level 1600m handicap here. Main danger. GALACTIC GLOW (5) showed ability at the same course fixture when a good third tackling a 2000m handicap. Makes for appeal. NIGHT BEAR (1) warrants a market check.
