Veeeery nice mid week meeting.Some decent nags running!!!

Race 7 Russian Beat

I made Approach Control the best bet on the card

Hence my post Karma

Approach Control wont be suited by both the inside track and distance. fitness will tell if they elect to go to front
my opinion


Maybe they will try the classics later on
