Sparkalot
Desert rain
Quite a decent time by simon dow 3yr old and being only 5/2 to beat an sbs horse then obviously decent on second ever run,1m11.60 for winner think the track maybe a little quicker than usual but still martk will be interesting and with small stable more chance of decent pruce in handicaps,this maiden was actually .16 quicker thah the 80 rated family family fortunes winning the 3yr old handicap off 80 yet another improver so the dow hprses mark will be interesting.Anything around the 80 mark,you may get some nice value,the sbs was debut run so could potentially be even better and a run back here in a maiden you could be looking an 8/11 shot that realistically would be a 1/3 shot.Two interesting runners if they stay on the aw...
Raffle king
Forgot to mention rasffle king,he was having 3rd run in this race and looked to be finishing with a fair bit in the tank even though beaten 6 1/4ls
he could turn out to be well handicapped hadn't run since may last season so was a bit of an eyecatcher.Presuming the dow horse doesn't get much more than a mark of 80 hopefully the channon horse will get rated in mid 60,can't realy see why he should be higher so i'd be keeping an eye on this ones mark as well.I wouldn't be afraid to back him in a maiden either,especially with a step up to 7fs tonights insignificant looking maiden could be very infiormative and might be some nice bets..
