Willing to forgive Dariana on her last run depending on her barrier. She should be good e/w value.

With a bit of rain around especially supposed to be later in the week I think Monaco Consul can't be ruled out here certainly not my final thoughts but he right now for me especially at the price is a must include.

Barrier 8 looks ok? HW

Hope the track improves for Saturday's meet

It is isupposed to rain the next 2 days i believe can't see the track being any better than Slow 7 Heavy 8 area certainly be looking to something that likes a wet track
