Racing Again Wednesday 9th Sept Handicap Stakes (Div I)

No comments available for this runner.

Unplaced last time out and only once successful in his last five starts, Hill O Rue arrives after a 52-day break with his trainer in poor form at 3% over the past fortnight; he has run over today's trip and going before, but at 138 lb from stall four he faces a stiff ask.

Third last time out and winless in his last six, Dr Rio nonetheless shapes as the one to beat here — our rating has him top of the nine, he returns on a quick turnaround of just 15 days, and he has run over today's trip and going before, carrying 137 lb from stall 3.

Taylormade Lad has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 65 ranks him second of nine, suggesting he holds strong claims despite carrying 136 lb; the concern is that he has been winless in his last five starts, with a pair of thirds his best recent efforts.

Vampire Slayer shaped with real promise when second two starts back and again a second four starts back, and his experience over today's trip and going is a clear asset carrying 135 lb from stall six; the worry is 160 days off the track for a gelding yet to win in recent starts.
