Harlow Race 6

238Mtrs (D4)

Stake: $770

ASTUTE HERO (4) jumps from trap 4 again after placing (15.65) last time at Harlow over 238m. Has the ability and looks hard to top. HEADFORD OISIN (6) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 3 lengths (15.78) at Harlow. Has ability and can atone. ROANNA SPEED (1) missed the frame latest but had been racing well prior to that including a D4 win two back (15.60) at Harlow. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. BADMINTON RACHEL (2) did a good job to finish third last time out over 238m at Harlow (15.66) in a D4, the second top-three finish on the trot.

Followed a minor placing at Harlow two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 1.75 lengths, last start in a D4 at Harlow over 238m (15.66). In solid form and can win without surprising.

Form has been steadily improving. Last start finished second over 238m at Harlow in 15.65 behind Moaning Mocha. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

In the money at Harlow at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 238m. No easier here and likely to struggle.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th over 238m at Harlow beaten 3 lengths (15.78) behind Moaning Mocha in a D4 on June 4. Had been in strong form, hitting the frame two times on end, before the latest effort.
