Ashburton Race 1 - Hygain Mdn
UNLEASH THE BEAST (7) the rise to 2200m here will suit this gelding. Bred to stay all day and looks the logical winner. DARKHAN ROAR (1) has run two good placings so far this time in. Chance to be in the quinella or trifecta. ISLEBEFINE (8) has been placed in a quarter of her starts so far. Best draw in a while here. Include in all multiples. PIRATES 'N' GOLD (2) has been course placed before. Two of his last four runs have been good and is drawn to be a threat in this. YUNGBLUD (6) has been not too bad at all in his last two starts. Ace gate. Chance to place or be first four.
