Verdict
Ragtime Red has won twice around here but has taken 30 runs to do so. PINEAPPLE EXPRESS ran three times here earlier in the year, the opener over this trip where she was narrowly beaten then twice over 1m4f. She went to Gowran on Wednesday and landed a handicap over an extended 1m1f in comfortable fashion and can defy a 6lb penalty. Fryerns scored over track and trip in November and found 1m4f too far last time while Jungle Jungle has won over slightly shorter at Gowran and is only 2lb higher. Siobhan Rutledge claims 7lb off the latter who looks a threat while it's about time Sinseir was losing his maiden tag and he was going on at the finish here last time.
