Q Straight Race 6 - LADBROKES QUICK MULTI 5Th Grade H

HOLD THE GAVEL (7) is progressing well scoring last time out (21.78) at Q Lakeside and bringing up her 12th career win. Strike rate this course and distance strong having won three of six tries. Form reads well for this. CHRISTMAS DAY (1) has recorded back to back wins, the latest jumping from this same box to score (16.57) by 1.75 lengths in a P5 at this track. Bold showing expected again. SHIMA POLLY (6) improved her time on first attempt here at the trip with a 1.75 lengths third in 19.22 latest. In form and looks a leading player again. UNPAID DEBT (2) can sneak into the finish again.
