Sale Race 8 - Horizon Battler's Cup Final (300+ Rank)

MINTER SCORCH (2) has a strong record this journey here with three wins and a minor from eight starts. Recorded a 2.5 lengths win (24.60) in a Special conditions H last time at this track. With a clean break looks hard to beat. CANDLES (4) charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led throughout to score when a 6 length winner (24.57) over 435m at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Can continue on with her winning form. SURF'S UP (3) goes very well this course and distance starting six times for three wins and two minors. Comes off a (24.48) win last time, scoring by 4 lengths in a Special conditions H over 435m at this track. Looks one of the chances. JUMBUK SLOPPY (8) has claims again if she runs up to the latest effort.
