Ffos Las Race 6

Celtic Subaru Supporting Ffos Las Racecourse Handicap Hurdle

Stake: $15,342

TWIST OF FATECATCH (2) performed creditably when 3.5L third over 3830m at Fontwell Park. Likely to improve advancing markedly in distance. MOHAWK CHIEF (3) resumes following a three-month spell. Last seen when narrowly defeated 0.5L third tackling 4100m at Market Rasen. Warrants serious consideration. D'JO DELA BARRIERE (4) rates highly after managing a 4.5L third tackling a 4800m hurdle at this venue. Holds claims eased in trip. NEW FOUND FAME (5) can fill fourth spot.

Recent form hard to fault. Freshened for 30 days. Last run finished third of 14 starters at Worcester on May 6 over 4000m, 3.5 len behind Kado De Joie carrying 73.5kg at $4.50.

Racing well. Last start finished third in a small field at this track on May 22 over 4800m, 4.5 len behind Northern Symphonie with 69.5kg at $3.80. The run before won by 3.5 len Plumpton on May 11 over 4110m defeating Hecouldbetheone with 69kg at $5 in a hurdle. Gets a chance to win. Capable of a lot better and is a strong top-three hope.
