OUR TIPS

This race is all about BAREFOOT ZULU (6), broke the track record in a trial prior to a blistering 25.04 heat win, loaded with upside and clearly the one to beat. Very even below him with NANGAR LADY (1) having a draw advantage and should run well. BREAKOUT BOY (8) and ZIPPING KRISTOFF (7) were both short price heat winners and from leading kennels
