RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: STAR RULER (1) drawn well again and looks well placed to be racing on the speed and should be right in the fisnish. A major chance. Stable mates WRITTEN IN SILK (8) and ARE WEASLEY (3) have ideal draws to be well placed and are every capable of fighting out the finish. Both FINAL BOW (9) and TOPHHUT JOHNY (10) are very honest and are never far away in this class whilst AVEIRO (7) YANKEE GAMBLER (11) and MICTON MOUSE (2) are racing in good form and must be respected. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3 RATINGS: 1/ 8/ 3/ 9/ 1/ 11/ 2
