Race Tip

RUFFIN (5) was well held last time in stakes class, finishing ninth over 6f in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. STARTDFROMDABOTTOM (6) raced on the speed last start over this course and distance and stuck on well to finish third, beaten 3.5 lengths. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. GOLDEN FLAG (1) is a talented gelding who tackled a tougher race at his last run on June 6 and finished ninth behind Empire's Fire over 6f in stakes class at Belterra Park (Dirt). Should be poised just off the lead. One to consider. MR LOOOCH (3) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 4 lengths. Worth another chance.
