DOWN-IN-CLASS speedster RUNAWAY ALGO made short work of yesterday’s Bridge 99FM feature race for overnight-allowance runners, going gate-to-wire in the seven and a half furlong event. A prospect for the US$125,000 Mouttet Mile on December 3, the...
RUNAWAY ALGO is a tempting banker in Sunday’s Bridge 99 FM Cup at seven and a half furlongs after staying on for third behind JORDON REIGN’S and EROY at a mile in grade one on August 27. However, galloping out the mile chute is no blink-sprint,...
