Kolkata Race 2 - Cradle Of The Deep Handicap

GIMMLER (2) returned from a break of two months and finished second over this course and distance last time out. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Expecting a bold showing. CLEVER HANS (4) finds it hard to win with four victories from 43 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when seventh over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. HIGH OPINION (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1400m at this track. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish. MIGHTY ZO (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
