Southwell. Race 7 - Golf And Gallop Handicap
MWAFAQ (1) recorded a career best result nine days ago placing 1.75L third at Redcar. Can shed maiden tag at the fourth attempt. ADVERSARY (2) narrowly missed on a win when a short-head second at Kempton three weeks back. Could go one better. DOVEY MOON (4) finished fourth on Saturday at Doncaster and might find the placings. CLASSIC CAUSE (6) looks interesting making seasonal reappearance.

Resuming after a seven months break. Not seen since he finished last of 13 at Kempton Park All Weather September 20 over 1400m, 28 len behind Consolidation with 60.5kg at $81. On debut second last of 7 at Ffos Las July 17 over 1200m, 10 len behind Lakers carrying 60.5kg at $8.50. Worth another chance this prep.
