Racing Notes

  • Gabriel Maldonado doubled up, the only rider with more than one win…

7. On the MarkMakes first start of the campaign

RACE 8

6. McMagicShould be in good position to take advantage when Duke of Dooly falters
2. Duke of DoolyLook for this one to control the pace; sealing the deal has been the issue, though he stayed on better in last
