GOING: G

JORDAN HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD     Out 9 Metres  

Lo Pan Spirit possesses good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. PRINCE OF PORTY (1) hasn't won for a long time now but looks to be getting back on track after a 2.3L defeat over 1000m most recently. He hit the line nicely there and out to this distance now is ideal. Purton has two wins aboard and hops back in the irons. There's plenty to like about him. LO PAN SPIRIT (3) sat outside the leader and proved too strong at this track and trip on debut, winning by 0.3L. Expecting him to be better for the experience despite jumping a $37 chance on debut. Has the pace to cross from the wide draw and will take plenty of catching again. CIRCUIT MAXIMUS (4) has looked good in his trials leading up to his debut, rounding up his rivals over this trip in a recent outing. Hewitson has made the trip to Conghua to trial him at his last two outings and rides today. Can make an impression on debut. HAYDAY (11) hasn't been far away of late and has his hoof on the till.
