thedogs - Richmond 23 February 2024 Race 10

Winning a Grp 2 Heat should never be understated: but this Derby run-off, really does look at the behest of ZIPPING NOVAK (1). Is a high class chaser, with a blend of pace and power. Won 23 of 54: and invariably runs fast Times. Won 2 from 3, here. Tepid recent numerical form, see BAILEY BEAR (6) over-priced in Markets. PEAKY JOE (4) for Exotics.
