SHOCKER      ON DAY          -30.25     review...

first race i did have the first three but new song did win under a very good ride
only recd one smack from soumillion so to be respected over further in 1000g
race 2 riflescope missed the start but run on strongly and will be better next time over 6f.
saltarin dubais were strange tactics not to lead but was a 3 way photo 
but montserat prob the one to take out of the race.
taamol prob did too much from the front from stall 1  
Lavaspin run ok from 1 and did lead but perhaps just below this grade and
drafted defo one to take out of the race as not fully fit by trainers admission.
lucias tiberious likewise from stall 1 under doyle was too free on front but the winner was very impressive and should win AGAIN
