Race preview

Jessica Harrington and Noel Kelly are both two-handed. Indeed Kelly also has reserve Wooster, along with Bachelor and Sayesse. However for those looking to have a bet DRAKENSBERG isn't easy to ignore as a dual course and distance scorer. What's more the Samum gelding was eye-catching here three weeks back. On that occasion Tony Martin's runner was waited with, finding himself in tenth position after the halfway stage. Switched right early in the straight, the chestnut was soon impeded after making headway. He ran on without threatening in the final furlong for third, indicating a bold bid is now in the offing. Wayne Lordan won on him before and he's back aboard.
