Alexandra Park Race 1 - RUAKAKA - EASTER MONDAY - HARNESS ON THE GRASS MOB PACE
MAKO (7) made an encouraging return when beaten just a neck first up at this circuit and should be better for the hitout. Draws wider but owns a strong record here and is suited dropping to a distance where he won his only attempt. ANOTHER COLLECT (5) didn't miss by much when runner-up at Cambridge last week, his first outing since November. Should be fitter for that and draws a couple of spots closer to the pegs. GOTTA GO MIKI (1) steps out for the first time since winning from this barrier here in December. This is stronger but has won fresh before so can give a sight. LINCOLN WAVE (2) has taken on the good three year-olds so will enjoy the class drop and did kick off his career with back-to-back wins here in January.
