Race Tip
INVINOVICH (2) is back at the races for the first time since January 5. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 5f at this track. Rates highly and should take some beating. STAR GAMBLE (1) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 2 lengths into fifth over 5½f at Ipswich. Has a fair record when second up, including two top-three finishes. The engagement of James Orman is a positive move. Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player. GOBLIN' DE QUO (4) was in the firing line on the bend and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 4f at Ipswich, beaten 1.75 lengths. The engagement of Dale Smith is noteworthy. Ready to go a couple better. ARTIE PANTZ (8) returned from a lay-off two weeks ago when she was beaten 2.5 lengths into seventh over 5f at this track. Strips fitter and can improve.
