---|---|---|---|---|
No recognised leader engaged but Five Star King possesses enough dash to take advantage of a low draw and take it up. TULSA KING (8) resumed with an encouraging run at Terang over 1400m, beaten a head. Should appreciate the rise to 1600m now and will be hard to hold out with the right run from a tricky draw. CAPTAIN ELECTRIC (2) was much better at his second start over this journey over 1600m. Open to further improvement now and looks very hard to run down. KING OF WESSEX (5) has placed in 2/3 runs to date, the latest over this trip at Cranbourne. Can roll forward from the wide draw and take catching. DYNAMIC DEEL (1) next best at odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tulsa King to win.
