Race Tip

BUCKLAND BELLE (4) holds a consistent recent record with three consecutive placings prior to a 2. 25L success in this handicap class at Leicester over 1m a fortnight ago. Upped in trip on a first visit here. Respect to follow up. PORT DARWIN (5) won an 1m1f Hamilton handicap three starts back before a below par 4. 5L fifth tackling a higher grade 1m3f handicap at Hamilton 25 days ago. Bold showing is expected. IT'S LIFE (2) was a surprise winner on flat return eleven days ago scoring by a nose in this level over 1m at Salisbury. Shortlist in this company. ANNEXATION (1) brings good course form including a 2L second contesting a similar level track and journey handicap two runs back. Not dismissed.
