GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of runners but the field lacks a pacemaker so a dawdling affair is on the cards. WIN JOYFUL (7) finished fourth last time out over 1600m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Goes well at this journey with six wins from eight starts. Profiles nicely. KANNON SOLARE (2) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 1600m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths. The engagement of Seiya Tatara is a positive move. Has the talent to figure prominently. GOOD FAITH (6) was never in contention when resuming last start over 1400m at this track, finishing 11th. Will make his presence felt. SOURIRE SINCERE (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third over 1400m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
