Gowran Park Race 2 - Golf At Gowran Park Hcp
POCKET JACKS (10) remains a maiden after four starts. Offered something to work with when finishing third making handicap debut over 1300m at the Curragh last week. Unlikely to be too far away. IMNOTLEAVINYOU (9) finished runner up on three straight starts before disappointing in a 1400m event at Down Royal. More needed here while the trip is fine. FATE'S GAMBIT (1) adopts a first time set of blinkers after struggling in a maiden event at Sligo. Makes handicap debut where market might be the best guide. SAGASTI (3) disappointed on handicap debut. Drop in trip will be most suitable and is one to consider.

Returns from a 40-day let-up. Last start 5th of 8 at Sligo on May 3 over 1307m, 13 len behind County Carlow carrying 61kg at $10. Before that 5th of 11 at Cork on April 4 over 1005m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Cardiff By The Sea with 61kg at $19. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another chance.
