        Verdict

        The next race on the card looks to be a three horse race between Desperate Dan, Guest Connections and RACOON the nod going to the latter mentioned. Raccoon has to be respected in this company even though he is ten years old. Ruth Carr does really well with her small string and places her horses quite well. The selection has 243 day absence to overcome but goes very well fresh so the break is only a slight concern. Furthermore, Racoon is best in at the weights to win this race so let's hope the old boy gets another win under his belt. The second best horse in at the weights is Desperate Dan and the Andy Haynes horse has the services of Jamie Spencer. His last two starts have been less inspiring but the fact Spencer takes this ride for Haynes is a good sign. Dandy Nicholls is always respected with horses in sellers but Guest Connection does have a bit to find at the weights. However, he must be monitored in the betting but we will return to Raccon for the victory.
