GOING:

Race 3 1400m

Track:      

Martellato to take up the running with Hinata Lady and Geopark Boss close at hand. MARTELLATO (9) went forward last start and gave a great sight when second over 1400m at this track. Will be close to the pace despite the draw and can feature. SAKURA TOP ROL (6) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing third over 1400m at this track last time out. Settles back early but winds up late. One of the leading chances. HINATA LADY (4) took advantage of the good draw and sat on the pace last start before tiring to finish sixth over 1400m at this track. Solid top-three claims. GEOPARK BOSS (3) has filled a minor placing at his last four outings, most recently when second over 1400m at this track. Hard to leave out.
