Newmarket Race 4 - National Stud Hcp (Gbbplus Race)
Bidding for a hat-trick ROUND THE TABLE (4) was off the mark on second try gaining a 5.5L win in a 2000m Ffos Las maiden during June then followed up under a penalty attempting a 2000m Doncaster novice by a neck. Switches to handicaps now and raised in distance looks set to improve. May take the next step. RACE TO THE STARS (3) returns off a 266-day break. Only beaten a neck last time contesting a 2000m Class Three Chelmsford handicap during November. Lightly raced and likely to be progressive representing top connections. BE PATIENT (5) was sent off favourite when 0.5L second in a Class Four Redcar handicap last time. Won previous two so holds chances on that form. FIRST OFFICER (6) is best of the rest.

Chasing a hat-trick. At the latest run favourite; won by a neck at Doncaster on July 23 over 2000m defeating Interstate carrying 61kg at $1.30. The run before that favourite; won by 5.5 len at Ffos Las on June 29 over 2000m defeating Le Morbihan with 59kg at $1.40. Well placed. Rates highly here and should be right in the mix again.
