Southwell Race 4 - Always Gamble Responsibly At BetMGM Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
CREST OF FIRE (5) First up from a 28 week break. Threw down a serious challenge last start at Doncaster and taking on a lower class of opponents. Should go well. FINLAGGAN (1) First run back after a 49 week break. Ran 7th last run at Fontainebleau. Has the ability to turn things around and was a debutant last start. Must respect. POWDER MONKEY (9) Placed 2nd last time at Wolverhampton and was a debutant last start. Dropping in class. Can give this a shake. BROUHAHA (4) Career debut 3yo by Coulsty for trainer Michael Appleby. Watch the betting.

First up and came on strongly to finish 2nd when beaten by 5L first up last preparation at Newcastle. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide stall. One for your tricast.

Was $41.00 and inched into 4th last time at Chelmsford and was on debut last time. Competing in an easier class. Stepping up in trip. Would rather look at others.

First run back from a break of 28 weeks. Close to a win last start at Doncaster and stepping down to a lower level. Expecting to settle positively. Solid chance.

Started $151.00 and came in 5th last run at Kempton but up against weaker rivals. Has the necessary speed to mitigate the wide draw. Gets a reduction in weight. Hard to have.

Jumped at $401.00 and moderate showing when 6th last start around here but facing weaker opposition. Down in distance. Can't entertain.

Jumped at $126.00 and underperformed when 7th last run at this venue but will find this grade easier. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Highly unlikely it will trouble the judge.
