View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan By Mark Nunan - With the first bend coming up quickly, a low draw is a significant advantage over seven furlongs at Gowran and MONOCLE ROCKET is well berthed in stall three. On his first start for almost nine months, the Coulsty gelding tried to make all over course and distance and was worn down late by Survivor’s Code. Although the ‘bounce’ factor is a concern, he can go one better if coming forward from that handicap debut. Survivor’s Code is only 2lb worse off with the selection and might improve further, while Bullet Bourbon had a good run in a back-end nursery here and made a promising reappearance at Dundalk. %0A
