Race Tip

HOLD UP (1) last appeared five weeks ago over 5½f at this track when he finished sixth. This is his first run for the Michael Stidham stable. Makes plenty of appeal in the new surrounds. AGENT KELLY (4) finds it hard to win with just one success from 13 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 5½f at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. In the right race and there is no reason he cannot get the major prize. PAEZ (5) scored two runs back then was popular with punters last time but could only manage to finish fifth over 6f at this track (Dirt) after he was prominent at the bend. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. MAMBA MINDSET (6) brings the right form to this race after taking out a 5½f contest at this track last time out by 1.5 lengths. Definite chance.
