Doncaster Race 7 - 275Mtrs (D1)

BANKSMAN (6) was strongly fancied last time but finished fourth (17.24) at this track, bringing a two-run winning streak to an end. Comes through a solid form race last start. Rates on top in this line up. SHACKELTON ACE (5) comes here off a fast fourth over 275m at this track in 17.22. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. DROOPYS FREEBIE (3) racing well without winning, placing at his last four runs. Last start finished 2nd in a D1 on May 9 over 275m at this track behind Mustang Mile beaten 3 lengths (17.06). Overdue and is among the main hopes. FAVOURITE PLACE (1) is in the mix after placing here at this trip last time out.
