GOING:

Race 4 1800m

Track:      

Looks a decent tempo with Feno Wolf, A Shin Beaute and Good Timing leading the charge. CROWN FLASH (6) has been thereabouts without winning, the latest effort a third over 1400m at this track. Isao Yamaguchi stays on and best form puts him right in this. A SHIN BEAUTE (3) is a speedy filly who was a winner first up at this track. Should park just off the speed and can feature again. GOOD TIMING (8) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was fourth over 1400m at this track. A better run is on the cards. FENO WOLF (2) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then got the job done by half a length last time out over 900m at this track. Best figures measure up and is a chance.
