THE 'Monkey' final at Harlow Stadium tonight (Wednesday) looks on paper to be a match between FARLOW BREEZE and GRANARDS FORTUNE. Strictly going on form the advantage seems to be with FARLOW BREEZE, but he has not had the best of luck with the trap draw and may struggle to get a clear run form trap three.

GRANARDS FORTUNE looks perfectly drawn in trap one and is fancied to lead up and leave trouble behind.

Track record holder BARTON WADE returns to Harlow tonight in one of the 'Monkey' heats and it would be a major surprise if he wasn't to book a place in next week's final. He is rated one of the top dogs in the country at present and it would take a brave man to oppose him in this mood.

Hopefully punters will be in fine voice after England thump Brazil on Friday, and patrons can carry on cheering after JENS TARTAN records her first ever victory.

She looked sure to win on her latest start but stumbled at a vital stage and this Friday's contest looks ideal for her to score at a decent price.

Bitches returning from season are always worth following once they hit form and WALLFLOWER HOUND can confirm this theory. She looked to be coming back to her best last week and should now be ready to get back onto the winners podium.

A marathon contest takes centre stage this Saturday night and promises to be a race to remember. TIPTREE GHOST has been noted making up a lot of ground at the end of his races and this extended trip should bring out the best in him.

FERNDALE DEEP made his long debut last week and went well for a long way before tiring later on. That experience should bring him on and he can land the spoils at the second time of asking.
