Salisbury Race 3 - Text Fitzdares The Private Bookmaker Handicap
Bidding for a hat-trick LIOSA (4) started the new season well recording his fourth AW victory with a comfortable 2L Kempton triumph. Two from three under Hector Crouch and needs to prove he is as effective in this sphere. Hard to oppose off a much reduced turf mark. Stable debutant DESDEMONA (5) made the frame in all three outings to date including a 3L Lingfield success when last in action tackling a race producing three subsequent winners. Feared first-up. With two AW wins SECOND NAME (3) enters calculations switching to turf. LIL GUFF (1) returned from a long break justifying favouritism at Bath before a respectable fifth at Southwell. In the mix.

Second run back. First-up after six months won by 2.25 len at Kempton Park All Weather April 15 over 1200m defeating Treacherous with 56.5kg at $9. Previously second-up won by 4 len at Kempton Park All Weather September 20 over 1200m defeating Crocus Time with 59.5kg at $2.50. Another win looks on the cards.
