The first of our three selections comes in the Class 4 Handicap over 1m3f and it sees the first selection in our each way double, with Dynamic Eagle the horse we are siding with.

The seven year old holds some nice form in his last two events, winning over course and distance in December and off 5lb higher ran another cracker to finish third.

He was behind two rivals that are racing again in this event, but with those both having penalties and Dynamic Eagle unpenalised for his latest run makes him a big player once more.

The second selection in our each way double comes in the Class 2 Handicap over five furlongs and Grateful Heart looks the form horse in the race.

The four year old will be ridden by Zac Purton who can help add to his impressive record at the track that has seen him become a triple six furlongs winner at the track in his last four races.

In his other event he finished second showing consistent form in his last four events and if handling the drop to five furlongs has to be respected.

Igniting

K W Lui
Age: 4
Weight: 9-1
OR: 74
Days: 14

Our NAP of the meeting comes in the lucky last which features the Class 3 Handicap over six furlongs and Igniting takes the eye.

This lightly raced four year old had shown signs of being a smart horse of late and finally fulfilled that promise when getting off the mark over course and distance two weeks ago.

The son of Starspangledbanner is up 7lb for his impressive win last time out and with Zac Purton doing the steering he looks sure to run another good race.
