GOING: G

Class 4 Handicap 1700m

Track: SOFT   Clouds (Max: 28)    

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Oraedahamkke. THE PLAYER (2) was well in commission last start over 1700m at this track when second, beaten 2 lengths. Worth another chance. KING DIA (5) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1800m at this track after being prominent from the outset. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ORAEDAHAMKKE (3) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track, most recently beaten 3 lengths into second over 1800m at this track when he was in the firing line all the way. Looks well placed so expect another big run. COMPLETE LEADER (1) was in the money two starts back at this track then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1800m at this track. Will drift back but wind up late. Suited here and can sneak into the finish.
