Race 9 – 20:25
1400m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future Class 3
10 – The Shepherd
Breeding: Captain Of All – Pepperdine by Trippi (USA)
Trainer: Peter Muscutt
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 61.0kg
Draw: 10 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
He didn’t take his last run well and the stable have done work on him. His work heading into this race has been pleasing. It is a competitive field with numerous horses having decent winning chances. There looks to be a decent pace in this race and from his wide draw, we will have to settle him near the rear of the field. If he brings his best form, he should run a much-improved race.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Best MR:98. Is 3kgs better off with number 8 on penultimate effort. Chance.
