WORLD HORSE RACING GRAND HANDICAP
Results
Tough finish to the week. KIN (9) resumes. Her last run at this track and distance was a narrow fourth in a good race and she should have plenty of residual fitness. Drawn out wide should suit with McDonald on, expect she's hard to hold out. BEWS (7) has been a model of consistency all preparation and notched up another win at Seymour last time. No reason he won't be in the finish again. ANILLA (2) went to Adelaide for a confidence booster last time and got the job done at $1.80. Form prior was rock solid, he should be thereabouts. REY MAGNERIO (10) is a progressive type who was far too good at Sale last time. He was behind Bews prior but has upside. PRAIRIE FLOWER (12) next best.
