Race Tip

MINARET STATION (6) is coming along nicely with back-to-back minor placings, the latest when third over 1m3f at this track at his third run in from a lay-off. Should be poised just off the lead. Leading contender. PROGRAM TRADING (4) has two wins and one placing from five runs this campaign. Scored last start by 2. 75 lengths in the G2 United Nations Stakes at Monmouth Park Turf (Turf) over 1m3f after being up on the pace all the way. Goes up a rung or two but he is capable of a big run. FORT GEORGE (5) raced on the speed when resuming last start and battled on well but found one better over 1m3f in the G2 Bowling Green Stakes at this track (Turf). Kieran Shoemark sticks. Likely improver with strong claims. OLE CRAZY BONE (3) is a last-start winner over 1m3f in the G2 Bowling Green Stakes at this track (Turf), showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by 0. 1 lengths. Strong performer at this stage of the prep with a win and two minor placings from five attempts. Takes on tougher opposition this time but cannot be underestimated.
