thedogs - Richmond 12 February 2024 Race 10

A steep Grade 4/5 contest over the Dash - and in the corner of the dog, that is less 1-dimensional to his rivals. GARSIDE TO EXCEL (7) boasts a nice blend of speed and strength. IF he can work his way outside the leaders early on, will prove too strong. TRAIN TO NOWHERE (6) odds-on defeat last Sun. Out for redemption. IRISH ACTOR (1) gets gun draw.

Comment:Act 1 - Scene 2! Box 1 is always a bonus in these Scampers: and this boy boasts nice stats, when drawn the Dulux. Yet to miss in 5 runs this 320m; winning twice
